Hepatocyte Transplantation in the Treatment of Acute Liver Failure: Microencapsulated Hepatocytes versus Hepatocytes Attached to an Autologous Biomatrix

Cell Transplantation, 2003
A liver transplant is considered today to be the only effective therapeutic solution for many otherwise intractable hepatic disorders. However, liver transplantation is beset by shortage of donors.

Blood vessel remodeling in pig ovarian follicles during the periovulatory period: an immunohistochemistry and SEM-corrosion casting study

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2009
Background The present research aims to describe the process of vascular readjustment occurring in pig ovary during the periovulatory phase (from LH surge to ovulation) that drives the transformation of the follicle, a limited blood supplied structure ...

Physiological conditions influencing regenerative potential of stem cells [PDF]

, 2016
Stem cells are being used in the treatment of cardivovascular diseases. Here, we review the physiologic and pathologic conditions that impact the regenerative potential of stem cells in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases which include the influence

T2-TrpRS Inhibits Preretinal Neovascularization and Enhances Physiological Vascular Regrowth in OIR as Assessed by a New Method of Quantification

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2006
A carboxyl-terminal fragment of tryptophan tRNA synthetase (T2-TrpRS) has demonstrated potent angiostatic activity during retinal developmental neovascularization in vivo. The effects of T2-TrpRS on pathologic neovascularization were tested and compared with a potent VEGF antagonist using the mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR).C57BL/6J ...

Disease modifying and antiangiogenic activity of 2-Methoxyestradiol in a murine model of rheumatoid arthritis

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2009
Background A critical component of disease progression in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) involves neovascularization associated with pannus formation. 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME2) is a naturally occurring molecule with no known physiologic function, although at ...

Contrast Ultrasound Imaging of the Carotid Artery Vasa Vasorum and Atherosclerotic Plaque Neovascularization [PDF]

, 2004
Cardiovascular disease is associated with the aging of the population, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes. Therefore, it is important to develop non-invasive imaging systems to detect “at-risk” populations.
