MicroRNAs Control Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Signaling [PDF]
Angiogenesis is a very tightly controlled process, in which endothelial cells need to migrate and proliferate toward ischemic tissue. A long-known factor that provides a gradient for endothelial cells to migrate toward is vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).1 Carefully titrated levels of VEGF are crucial for blood vessel development, because even

Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

Physiological Plasticity of Neural-Crest-Derived Stem Cells in the Adult Mammalian Carotid Body [PDF]
Adult stem cell plasticity, or the ability of somatic stem cells to cross boundaries and differentiate into unrelated cell types, has been amatter of debate in the last decade.

The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family: angiogenic factors in health and disease
SummaryVascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are a family of secreted polypeptides with a highly conserved receptor-binding cystine-knot structure similar to that of the platelet-derived growth factors. VEGF-A, the founding member of the family, is

Dense Nanofibrillar Collagen–Silica Hybrids with High Strength and ECM‐Mimetic Tissue Integration
Dense nanofibrillar collagen–silica hybrids are engineered by synchronizing collagen fibrillogenesis with silica condensation, producing printable scaffolds that unexpectedly approach native extracellular matrix organization and strength. These cell‐free constructs guide endogenous cell‐infiltration, enable localized matrix remodeling, and integrate ...

Protein growth factors and myocardial remodeling in hypertension in men with psoriasis
Background. Protein growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor and insulin-like growth factor are involved in the pathogenesis of hypertension and psoriasis, and endothelial dysfunction is also noted in these diseases.

VEGF is indirectly associated with NO production
Background? Increased levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) have been observed in patients with metabolic syndrome (MetS). Nitric oxide (NO) formation is reduced in MetS, but its relationship to VEGF production remains poorly defined.
