LncRNA XIST regulates atherosclerosis progression in ox-LDL-induced HUVECs
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been verified as vital regulators in human disease, including atherosclerosis. However, the precise role of X-inactive-specific transcript (XIST) in atherosclerosis remains unclear.

The ratio of VEGF/PEDF expression in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells regulates neovascularization [PDF]
Angiogenesis, or neovascularization, is a finely balanced process controlled by pro- and anti-angiogenic factors. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a major pro-angiogenic factor, whereas pigment epithelial-derived factor (PEDF) is the most ...

Investigation of the marine compound spongistatin 1 links the inhibition of PKCα translocation to nonmitotic effects of tubulin antagonism in angiogenesis [PDF]
The aims of the study were to meet the demand of new tubulin antagonists with fewer side effects by characterizing the antiangiogenic properties of the experimental compound spongistatin 1, and to elucidate nonmitotic mechanisms by which tubulin ...

Galectin-1 Regulates RNA Expression and Alternative Splicing of Angiogenic Genes in HUVECs
Background: Angiogenesis is essential for tissue development, and therefore its dysregulation can cause various diseases, including cerebrovascular disease. Galectin-1, encoded by the lectin galactoside-binding soluble-1 gene (LGALS1), has critical roles
