Outcomes of Live Virus Vaccination in Patients With Vascular Anomalies Being Treated With Sirolimus

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Live vaccination in patients with vascular anomalies (VA) receiving sirolimus remains controversial due to immunosuppressive effects and theoretical risks. Procedure This single‐center retrospective study included patients with VA less than 4 years old at the start of sirolimus therapy who were incompletely vaccinated.

Immunohistochemical expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in orofacial lesions – A review

Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2016
Angiogenesis is considered to be an important biological process in disease progression and tumorigenesis. Among the various factors associated with angiogenesis, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a leading candidate.

Angiopoietins differentially influence in vitro angiogenesis by endothelial cells of different origin [PDF]

, 2011
Angiopoietins are important growth factors for vascular development and quiescence. They are promising targets for pro-or anti-angiogenic therapies in diverse pathologies, but the mechanisms of the ANGPT/TIE2 system are complex and not well understood ...

Cerebrospinal Fluid Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor [PDF]

JAMA Neurology, 2015
In this issue of JAMA Neurology, Hohman et al1 provide new insights into a biomarker related to cognitive performance in advanced age. They report that elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) are associated with improved hippocampal volume, episodic memory, and executive function.

NRASQ61R Expression in Lymphatic Endothelial Cells Causes Enlarged Vessels, Hemorrhagic Chylous Effusions, and High Mortality in a Mouse Model of Kaposiform Lymphangiomatosis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Kaposiform lymphangiomatosis (KLA) is an aggressive complex lymphatic anomaly. Patients exhibit malformed lymphatic vessels and often develop hemorrhagic effusions and elevated angiopoietin‐2 (Ang‐2) levels. A somatic NRAS p.Q61R (NRASQ61R) mutation has been associated with KLA.

Pulmonary Dysfunction Is Associated With Sleep Study Abnormalities in Children With Sickle Cell Disease: A Multicenter Study

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pulmonary dysfunction and sleep abnormalities are common in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Whether spirometry abnormalities are associated with polysomnography (PSG) findings remains unclear.
