Advancing Human Skin Equivalents: The Crucial Role of Neurovascular Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This review discusses the importance of integrating vascular and peripheral nerve systems into human skin equivalents (HSEs) to better recapitulate native skin physiology. Recent advances in vascularized, innervated, and neurovascularized HSEs are highlighted, together with emerging bioengineering strategies, current challenges, and future ...

An examination of VEGF, its receptors and the adherens junction component, β-catenin in the development of primary varicose veins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) plays a central role in the maintenance of vascular reactivity and its aberrant control/function is implicated in the development of varicose veins (VVs).

Beyond inhibition: harnessing the DRD2–VEGF-A feedback loop for precision anti-angiogenesis therapy in cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
Current anti-angiogenic therapies using vascular endothelial growth factor-A/vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGF-A/VEGFR2) inhibitors lack dynamic biomarkers that can facilitate patient selection and optimize dosing; this can lead to ...

Two Birds, One Stone: Double Hits on Tumor Growth and Lymphangiogenesis by Targeting Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 3

open access: yesCells, 2019
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 (VEGFR3) has been known for its involvement in tumor-associated lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis. The VEGFR3 signaling is stimulated by its main cognate ligand, vascular endothelial growth factor C (

Self‐Healing Hydrogel‐Enabled Modular Assembly of Bilayered Skin Construct for Hair Follicle Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Self‐healing assembly of two cell‐laden hydrogel layers creates a biomimetic skin construct that restores both dermal and epidermal functions, resulting in accelerated wound healing and enhanced hair follicle regeneration in a full‐thickness skin wound model. ABSTRACT Alopecia remains a pervasive clinical challenge, largely owing to the limited ability

Hybrid Biofabrication of a Hierarchically Organized Periosteum‐Inspired In Vitro Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid biofabrication strategy integrates melt electrowriting with extrusion‐based 3D bioprinting to create a hierarchically organized periosteum‐inspired in vitro platform. Spatially defined osteogenic, fibrous, and endothelial cell‐containing compartments support long‐term culture, osteogenic maturation, and CD31+ endothelial cell organization ...

Distribution of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in prostate disease [PDF]

open access: yesProstate Cancer and Prostatic Diseases, 2002
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a heparin-binding polypeptide growth factor. It is a potent mitogen for endothelial cells. Immunohistochemical localisation of VEGF was performed on 25 moderate to poorly differentiated stage T4 M+ prostate cancer specimens and 30 benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) specimens.
