Growth factor purification and delivery systems (PADS) for therapeutic angiogenesis
BACKGROUND Therapeutic angiogenesis with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), delivered either via recombinant protein infusion or via gene therapy, has shown promise in preclinical models of various diseases including myocardial infarction, renovascular disease, preeclampsia, and neurodegenerative disorders. However, dosing, duration of expression, and tissue specificity are challenges t...
متن کاملTherapeutic angiogenesis using vascular endothelial growth factor.
Therapeutic angiogenesis using vascular endothelial growth factor can reduce tissue ischemia by simulating the natural process of angiogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor not only stimulates endothelial cells to proliferate and migrate, but also mobilizes endothelial progenitor cells and achieves vascular protection. Besides direct administration of angiogenic proteins, plasmids and vir...
متن کاملCoupling growth-factor engineering with nanotechnology for therapeutic angiogenesis.
Therapeutic angiogenesis is an emerging paradigm for the management of ischemic pathologies. Proangiogenic Therapy is limited, however, by the current inability to deliver angiogenic factors in a sustained manner at the site of pathology. In this study, we investigated a unique nonglycosylated active fragment of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor, 1K1, which acts as a potent angiogenic age...
متن کاملGrowth factor-induced therapeutic angiogenesis in the heart: protein therapy.
Therapeutic angiogenesis, stimulated growth of new vasculature to compensate for tissue ischemia, remains an unfulfilled promise. After nearly a decade of trials, the development of drugs capable of stimulating revascularization of underperfused tissues remains an exciting but unrealized goal in cardiovascular therapeutics. This review will summarize experiences in therapeutic angiogenesis stud...
متن کاملTherapeutic Myocardial Angiogenesis Via Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Gene Therapy
Amid the criticisms levied at gene therapy researchers recently, the positive (yet preliminary) advances in therapies designed to elicit angiogenesis for the treatment of ischemic vascular disease, such as the current report by Vale and colleagues,1 are a breath of fresh air for cardiovascular specialists and their patients. Although therapeutic angiogenesis is still in its nascent stages (and ...
