Proximal tubule dysfunction is associated with podocyte damage biomarkers nephrin and vascular endothelial growth factor in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients: a cross-sectional study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
There is an ongoing debate as to whether early diabetic nephropathy in Type 2 diabetes mellitus may be attributed to the glomerulus or to the proximal tubule.

Vascular endothelial growth factor-C: its unrevealed role in fibrogenesis.

Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol, 2014
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C is a key mediator of lymphangiogenesis. Our recent study shows that VEGF-C/VEGF receptors (VEGFR)-3 are significantly increased in the infarcted rat myocardium, where VEGFR-3 is expressed not only in lymph ducts but also in myofibroblasts, indicating that VEGF-C has an unrevealed role in fibrogenesis during ...

Bisacurone gel ameliorated burn wounds in experimental rats via its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and angiogenic properties [PDF]

Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2023
Purpose: To investigate putative mechanism of wound healing for chitosan-based bisacurone gel against secondary burn wounds in rats. Methods: A second-degree burn wound with an open flame using mixed fuel (2 mL, 20 seconds) was induced in Sprague Dawley

Autophagy in the endothelium commands flow-mediated vascular reactivity and remodelling, and regulates VEGFR2 subcellular localization and signalling

Autophagy Reports, 2023
Pharmacological approaches aimed at increasing autophagic flux and genetically engineered mice with autophagy deficiency in the endothelium have demonstrated that autophagy exerts vessel protection against metabolic stresses and vascular aging.

Vascular endothelial growth factor C promotes survival of retinal vascular endothelial cells via vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2006
To determine vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF-C) expression in retinal endothelial cells, its antiapoptotic potential and its putative role in diabetic retinopathy.Cultured retinal endothelial cells and pericytes were exposed to tumour necrosis factor (TNF)alpha and VEGF-C expression determined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain ...
