Basic fibroblast growth factor mediates carotid plaque instability through metalloproteinase-2 and –9 expression [PDF]
OBJECTIVE(S): We hypothesized that basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) may exert a role in carotid plaque instability by regulating the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP).

The key components of Schwann cell-like differentiation medium and their effects on gene expression pattern of adipose-derived stem cells. [PDF]
BackgroundSchwann cell-like cells differentiated from adipose-derived stem cells may have an important role in peripheral nerve regeneration. Herein, we document the individual effects of growth factors in Schwann cell-like differentiation medium ...

Tumor Necrosis Factor - Related Apoptosis-Inducing Ligand (TRAIL) promotes angiogenesis and ischemia- induced neovascularization via NADPH Oxidase 4 (NOX4) and Nitric Oxide - dependent mechanisms [PDF]
Background — Tumor necrosis factor–related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has the ability to inhibit angiogenesis by inducing endothelial cell death, as well as being able to promote pro- angiogenic activity in vitro.

Fibroblast Growth Factors 1 and 2 in the Primate Uterus [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factors (FGF) 1 and 2 are paracrine effectors of proliferation and angiogenesis in many tissues. To elucidate potential roles for these growth factors in uterine plasticity, we used in situ hybridization histochemistry to identify the cellular sources of FGF-1 and -2 production, and immunohistochemistry to identify the cellular and ...

During development of the mammalian brain, both neurons and glia are generated from multipotent neural stem cells. Although neurogenesis ceases in most areas at birth, stem cells continue to generate neurons within the subventricular zone and hippocampal
