Polymorphisms in TIE2 and ANGPT-1 genes are associated with protection against diabetic retinopathy in a Brazilian population [PDF]
Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the association between SNPs in the TIE2 and ANGPT-1 genes and diabetic retinopathy (DR). Subjects and methods: This study comprised 603 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and DR ...

The Tie2 signaling pathway in retinal vascular diseases: a novel therapeutic target in the eye
Background Retinal vascular diseases such as neovascular age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and/or diabetic macular edema, and retinal vein occlusion with macular edema—share several key pathophysiologic aspects including ...

Flow-dependent regulation of endothelial Tie2 by GATA3 in vivo
Background Reduced endothelial Tie2 expression occurs in diverse experimental models of critical illness, and experimental Tie2 suppression is sufficient to increase spontaneous vascular permeability.

Background The intervertebral disc (IVD) has limited self-healing potential and disc repair strategies require an appropriate cell source such as progenitor cells that could regenerate the damaged cells and tissues.

Introduction The intervertebral disc (IVD) has a limited regenerative potential and low back pain represents a leading cause of disability. 1 IVD repair strategies require an appropriate cell source that is able to regenerate the damaged tissue such as ...

The Angiopoietin-Tie2 Pathway in Critical Illness
Lethal features of sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) relate to the health of small blood vessels. For example, alveolar infiltration with proteinaceous fluid is often driven by breach of the microvascular barrier. Spontaneous thrombus formation within inflamed microvessels exacerbates organ ischemia, and in its final stages, erupts ...

Mechanisms underlying the vein development remain largely unknown. Tie2 signaling mediates endothelial cell (EC) survival and vascular maturation and its activating mutations are linked to venous malformations.

Twist1 controls lung vascular permeability and endotoxin-induced pulmonary edema by altering Tie2 expression. [PDF]
Tight regulation of vascular permeability is necessary for normal development and deregulated vascular barrier function contributes to the pathogenesis of various diseases, including acute respiratory distress syndrome, cancer and inflammation.

Successful fishing for nucleus pulposus progenitor cells of the intervertebral disc across species
Background Recently, Tie2/TEK receptor tyrosine kinase (Tie2 or syn. angiopoietin‐1 receptor) positive nucleus pulposus progenitor cells were detected in human, cattle, and mouse.

Characterization of the Ang/Tie2 Signaling Pathway in the Diaphragm Muscle of DMD Mice
In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), angiogenesis appears to be attenuated. Local administration of angiopoietin 1 (Ang1) has been shown to reduce inflammation, ischemia, and fibrosis in DMD mice.
