Chorionic gonadotropin stimulation of angiogenesis and pericyte recruitment.
CONTEXT During the periimplantation period, human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) plays a key role by increasing the uterine blood flow through uterine vessel vasodilatation but also through angiogenesis. Indeed, we previously demonstrated that hCG contributes to endothelial cell recruitment and vessel formation. OBJECTIVE In this study, hCG was proposed as an arteriogenic factor that could prom...
متن کاملMCP-1 Causes Leukocyte Recruitment and Subsequently Endotoxemic Ileus in Rat Running head: MCP-1 and endotoxemic ileus
Endotoxemia causes an inflammatory response within the intestinal muscularis and gastrointestinal dysmotility. We hypothesize that the resident macrophage-derived chemokine MCP-1 plays a significant role in the recruitment of leukocytes into the LPS stimulated rat intestinal muscularis. MCP-1 mRNA expression was investigated by RT-PCR. Leukocyte extravasation and MCP-1 protein localization were...
متن کاملMonocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1 promotes angiogenesis via a novel transcription factor, MCP-1-induced protein (MCPIP).
Monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) has been recognized as an angiogenic chemokine. The molecular mechanism of MCP-1-mediated angiogenesis remains unknown. We recently identified a novel transcription factor, designated MCP-1-induced protein (MCPIP), in human monocytes after treatment with MCP-1. We investigated whether MCP-1-induced angiogenesis is mediated via MCPIP. Treatment of human umb...
متن کاملHSP90 and Akt modulate Ang-1-induced angiogenesis via NO in coronary artery endothelium.
This study examines the notion that heat shock protein (HSP) 90 binding to nitric oxide (NO), endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), and PI3K-Akt regulate angiopoietin (Ang)-1-induced angiogenesis in porcine coronary artery endothelial cells (PCAEC). Exposure to Ang-1 (250 ng/ml) for periods up to 2 h resulted in a time-dependent increase in eNOS phosphorylation at Ser 1177 that occurred by 5 min and ...
متن کاملIn vitro 3D collective sprouting angiogenesis under orchestrated ANG-1 and VEGF gradients.
Sprouting angiogenesis requires a coordinated guidance from a variety of angiogenic factors. Here, we have developed a unique hydrogel incorporating microfluidic platform which mimics the physiological microenvironment in 3D under a precisely orchestrated gradient of soluble angiogenic factors, VEGF and ANG-1. The system enables the quantified investigation in chemotactic response of endothelia...
