Control of human endometrial stromal cell motility by PDGF-BB, HB-EGF and trophoblast-secreted factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Human implantation involves extensive tissue remodeling at the fetal-maternal interface. It is becoming increasingly evident that not only trophoblast, but also decidualizing endometrial stromal cells are inherently motile and invasive, and likely ...

Vasodilator effect of vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) in the conditions of bone tissue formation by the method of discrete traction in congenital segmental pathology

open access: yesГений oртопедии, 2018
The development of the limbs in patients with congenital segmental defects is associated with defects in the vascular system of the same segment. In this case, vascular endothelial growth factors that participate in physiological angiogenesis may have ...
