Serum levels of VEGF and bFGF in hypoxic patients with exacerbated COPD.
Hypoxia frequently complicates the course of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) are the two most potent angiogenic factors and may play a role in adaptation to hypoxia. The aims of the study were to assess the serum levels of VEGF and bFGF and to evaluate their mutual relationship in hypoxic patients ...
متن کاملEffects of dl-3-n-butylphthalide on serum VEGF and bFGF levels in acute cerebral infarction.
OBJECTIVE To observe the curative effect of dl-3-n-Butylphthalide (NBP) on patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) and its effects on levels of serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 160 ACI patients treated in our hospital who met the criteria were selected and randomly divided into treatment group (n=8...
متن کاملSerum levels of IGF-I, HGF, TGFbeta1, bFGF and VEGF in thyroid gland tumors.
IGF-I, HGF, TGFbeta1, bFGF and VEGF are involved in the pathogenesis of thyroid gland tumors and their growth. We decided to find whether changes in the production of these cytokines by thyroid tumor cells are reflected by changes of their peripheral blood. Using ELISA kits, we measured the concentrations of growth factors in the peripheral blood serum in 28 patients with thyroid gland tumors (...
متن کاملSalivary VEGF-R3, TNF-α, TGF-β and IL-17A/F Levels in Patients with Minor Aphthous
Background : Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common mucosal ulcerative of oral cavity. Role of immune system, especially cytokines in immunopathogenesis of aphthous stomatitis was not highly considered. The aim of this study was to evaluate the levels of salivary cytokines, including VEGF-R3, TGF-&beta1, TNF-&alpha, and IL-17A/F in patients with RAS in two clinical stages...
متن کاملAssessment of patients skin dose undergoing coronary angiography and Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA)
Background: Practice of interventional cardiology procedures such as Coronary angiography (CA) and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) has largely increased in recent years and is now changing to a matter of routine in many hospitals. The purpose of this study was to measure skin and organ doses in patients undergoing CA and PTCA and to find a probable relation with c...
