Hemodynamics and the vascular endothelial cytoskeleton
Although there is considerable evidence to suggest that hemodynamics play an important role in vascular disease processes, the exact mechanisms are unknown. With this in mind, we have designed a pulsatile perfusion apparatus which reproducibly delivers pulsatile hemodynamics upon freshly excised canine carotid arteries in vitro. Quantifiable simulations included normotension with normal or lowe...
متن کاملThe Association Analysis of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor -2549 Insertion/Deletion Variant and Endometriosis Risk
Endometriosis is a debilitating disorder, defined as the presence of endometrial gland and stroma outside of the uterus. It may affect angiogenesis and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the angiogenic factors that plays an important role in both physiological and pathological angiogenesis. The present study aimed to evaluate the association of VEGF -2549 insertion/deletion (I/...
متن کاملRoles of estrogen and progesterone in endometrial hemodynamics and vascular endothelial growth factor production.
BACKGROUND The endometrium becomes receptive to the embryo after sequential actions of estrogen and progesterone. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of estrogen and progesterone on endometrial hemodynamics and on secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) from endometrial epithelial cells (EEC). METHODS Six early postmenopausal women taking sequential estrogen an...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production is Regulated by Gene Polymorphisms
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a key role in angiogene-sis and in transplantation. The level of VEGF is related to the differences in the DNA sequence of its promoter region. Objectives: In this study, the association between the combination of VEGF –1154 G and –2578 C alleles and VEGF production by LPS-stimulated PBMCs was investigated. In addition; the relationship ...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor from Embryonic Status to Cardiovascular Pathology
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a multifunctional cytokine with distinct functions in angiogenesis, lymphangiogenesis, vascular permeability, and hematopoiesis. VEGF is a highly conserved, disulfide-bonded dimeric glycoprotein of 34 to 45 kDa produced by several cell types including fibroblasts, neutrophils, endothelial cells, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells, particularly T ...
