Intravitreal Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Therapies for Retinal Disorders
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are key mediator of retinal and choroidal neovascularization as well as retinal vascular leakage leading to macular edema.

Generation of human adult mesenchymal stromal/stem cells expressing defined xenogenic vascular endothelial growth factor levels by optimized transduction and flow cytometry purification [PDF]
Adult mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) are a valuable source of multipotent progenitors for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, but may require to be genetically modified to widen their efficacy in therapeutic applications.

Updates on Anticancer Therapy-Mediated Vascular Toxicity and New Horizons in Therapeutic Strategies
Vascular toxicity is a frequent adverse effect of current anticancer chemotherapies and often results from endothelial dysfunction. Vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors (VEGFi), anthracyclines, plant alkaloids, alkylating agents, antimetabolites,

Endothelial Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibits glioma angiogenesis and normalizes tumor blood vessels by inducing PDGF-B expression [PDF]
Endothelial Wnt/β-catenin signaling is necessary for angiogenesis of the central nervous system and blood–brain barrier (BBB) differentiation, but its relevance for glioma vascularization is unknown. In this study, we show that doxycycline-dependent Wnt1

A multiscale hybrid model for pro-angiogenic calcium signals in a vascular endothelial cell [PDF]
Cytosolic calcium machinery is one of the principal signaling mechanisms by which endothelial cells (ECs) respond to external stimuli during several biological processes, including vascular progression in both physiological and pathological conditions ...

Glu298Asp endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene polymorphism interacts with environmental and dietary factors to influence endothelial function [PDF]
An endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene polymorphism (Glu298Asp) has been associated with cardiovascular disease. We investigated whether carriage of the polymorphism was associated with functional changes in the endothelium, and how genotype ...

THE ROLE OF DYSLIPIDEMIA IN THE PROGRESSION OF DIABETIC RETINOPATHY
Angiogenesis factors, growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), angiopoietin-2, insulin-like growth factor, etc.) and cytokines play the leading role in the production by endothelial cells of new retinal blood vessels, increased vascular
