Gene expression analysis of Tek/Tie2 signaling [PDF]
The elaboration of the vasculature during embryonic development involves restructuring of the early vessels into a more complex vascular network. Of particular importance to this vascular remodeling process is the requirement of the Tek/Tie2 receptor tyrosine kinase.

Blockade of angiopoietin-2/Tie2 signaling pathway specifically promotes inflammation-induced angiogenesis in mouse cornea [PDF]
AIM: To investigate angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2)/Tie2 signaling pathway involving in inflammatory angiogenesis. METHODS: Three interrupted 11-0 nylon sutures were placed into the corneal stroma of BALB/c mice (6wk old) to induce inflammatory ...

ABSTRACTBackgroundLow back pain remains the leading cause of disability worldwide, with intervertebral disc degeneration representing a major biological contributor. Although cell‐based therapies have shown promise in preclinical models, clinical translation has yielded modest and inconsistent outcomes.

Background Venous malformations (VMs), most of which associated with activating mutations in the endothelial cells (ECs) tyrosine kinase receptor TIE2, are characterized by dilated and immature veins with scarce smooth muscle cells (SMCs) coverage ...

Background and Purpose Colorectal cancer is one of the most prevalent cancers worldwide, and novel precision medicine approaches are rapidly improving patient outcomes. Phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B) is a member of an enzyme family (PDE4) that hydrolyses intracellular cAMP to control spatial and temporal signalling cues.

Endothelial Function Is Associated With Incident Diabetes Mellitus: The ELSA‐Brasil Cohort Study
ABSTRACT Aims Diabetes mellitus is associated with endothelial dysfunction, but the bidirectional nature of this relationship remains debated. We aimed to evaluate the association between microvascular endothelial function and incident diabetes in Brazilian adults and to assess potential effect modification by obesity status.

Tie2 activation protects against prothrombotic endothelial dysfunction in COVID-19
Endothelial dysfunction accompanies the microvascular thrombosis commonly observed in severe COVID-19. Constitutively, the endothelial surface is anticoagulant, a property maintained at least in part via signaling through the Tie2 receptor.

SPARC (spatio‐chimeric, plasma‐based, anisotropic, and shear‐responsive construct) that integrates myogenic and vascular microenvironments within a single construct. The dual‐modulus matrix directs aligned myotube formation and endothelial network development, enabling a vascularized muscle implant that seamlessly anastomoses with host tissue and ...

CD4+ Tregs Drive Post‐Ischemic Sprouting Angiogenesis via Endothelial YY1/MAML1 Reactivation
ABSTRACT Microvascular complications of diabetes are chronic diseases of small vessels. We previously found that CD4+ regulatory T‐cells (Tregs) are markedly reduced in type 2 diabetes (T2D) after ischemic injury in both mice and humans, and that Treg deficiency in immunodeficient mice impairs vascular regeneration.

AbstractPhosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) is activated by transmembrane tyrosine kinases such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors and Tie2 (tunica intima endothelial kinase 2), both of which are key regulators of vascular development. However, the in vivo role of PI3K during developmental vascularization remains to be defined. Here we
