Circulatory endostatin level and risk of cardiovascular events in patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis [PDF]
Background Endostatin is released during extracellular matrix remodeling and is involved in the development of vascular pathology and cardiovascular (CV) disease. However, the role of circulating endostatin as a biomarker of vascular calcification and CV

Antiangiogenesis signals by endostatin [PDF]
ABSTRACT Endostatin is a potent endogenous angiogenesis inhibitor that induces regression of tumors in mice. Neither an extracellular receptor for endostatin nor intracellular signals that result in the regression of tumor vascular beds have been identified.

Endostatin in fibrosis and as a potential candidate of anti-fibrotic therapy
Fibrotic diseases pose significant clinical challenges due to their broadness and complexity. Thus, a better understanding of fibrogenesis and the development of more effective treatments is imperative. Recent evidence suggests a significant antifibrotic

Dual-function injectable angiogenic biomaterial for the repair of brain tissue following stroke. [PDF]
Stroke is the primary cause of disability due to the brain's limited ability to regenerate damaged tissue. After stroke, an increased inflammatory and immune response coupled with severely limited angiogenesis and neuronal growth results in a stroke ...

Status and future directions of anti-metastatic cancer nanomedicines for the inhibition of cathepsin L [PDF]
Angiogenesis, tissue invasion and metastasis in the tumour microenvironment are all critical hallmarks of cancer. Upregulation of cathepsin L plays an important role in angiogenesis and metastasis through its ability to degrade the extracellular matrix ...
