Two dimensional soliton in tumor induced angiogenesis [PDF]
Ensemble averages of a stochastic model show that, after a formation stage, the tips of active blood vessels in an angiogenic network form a moving two dimensional stable diffusive soliton, which advances toward sources of growth factor. Here we use methods of multiple scales to find the diffusive soliton as a solution of a deterministic equation for ...

Comparison of vascular endothelial growth factor and fibroblast growth factor-2 in a swine model of endothelial dysfunction☆☆☆ [PDF]
Growth factor based angiogenesis, with or without cell therapy, is a promising therapeutic modality for patients with coronary artery disease. We compared the relative efficacies of surgically delivered vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) in a swine model of hypercholesterolemia-induced endothelial ...

Tumor microenvironment drives cancer formation and progression. We analyzed the role of human cancer‐associated adipocytes from patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) stratified as lean, overweight, or obese. RNA‐seq demonstrated that, among the most altered genes involved in the tumor–stroma crosstalk, are ADAM12 and CYP1B1, which were proven to be ...

The literature review focuses on the role of various growth factors in the developing vasculature of the ovary. Vascularization plays an important role in physiological processes such as development and atresia of a follicle, the formation of the yellow ...

Statins have shown anti-inflammatory pleiotropic effects in subjects with/at risk of cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the inflammatory/immunomodulatory properties of rosuvastatin in subjects at low-to-moderate cardiovascular ...

Patient‐derived xenografts (PDXs) can be improved by implantation of a humanized niche. We tested different biomaterials and approaches, and demonstrate that the combination of an injectable biomaterial for scaffold creation plus an intravenous route for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) xenotransplantation provide the most convenient and robust approach to

THE ROLE OF DYSLIPIDEMIA IN THE PROGRESSION OF DIABETIC RETINOPATHY
Angiogenesis factors, growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), angiopoietin-2, insulin-like growth factor, etc.) and cytokines play the leading role in the production by endothelial cells of new retinal blood vessels, increased vascular

CD226+CD8+ T cells express elevated levels of RUNX2, exhibit higher proliferation capacity, cytokines and cytolytic molecules expression, and migratory capacity. In contrast, CD226−CD8+ T cells display an exhausted phenotype associated with the increased expression of co‐inhibitory receptors and impaired effector functions.

We have shown previously that adipose stromal cell (ASC)-derived conditioned media (CM) limited lung injury, endothelial barrier dysfunction, and apoptosis. Here, we used endothelial hyperpermeability and apoptosis assays to investigate how concentration

Finite element modelling of in-stent restenosis [PDF]
From the perspective of coronary heart disease, the development of stents has come significantly far in reducing the associated mortality rate, drug-eluting stents being the epitome of innovative and effective solutions. Within this work, the intricate process of in-stent restenosis is modelled considering one of the significant growth factors and its ...
