Injectable fibroblast growth factor-2 coacervate for persistent angiogenesis.
Enhancing the maturity of the newly formed blood vessels is critical for the success of therapeutic angiogenesis. The maturation of vasculature relies on active participation of mural cells to stabilize endothelium and a basal level of relevant growth factors. We set out to design and successfully achieved robust angiogenesis using an injectable polyvalent coacervate of a polycation, heparin, a...
متن کاملNeprilysin inhibits angiogenesis via proteolysis of fibroblast growth factor-2.
Neprilysin is a cell surface peptidase that catalytically inactivates neuropeptide substrates and functions as a tumor suppressor via its enzymatic function and multiple protein-protein interactions. We investigated whether neutral endopeptidase could inhibit angiogenesis in vivo utilizing a murine corneal pocket angiogenesis model and found that it reduced fibroblast growth factor-2-induced an...
متن کاملFibroblast Growth Factor-1 vs. Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 in Ischemic Skin Flap Survival in a Rat Animal Model
BACKGROUND One of the main challenges in skin flap surgery is tissue ischemia and following necrosis. The present study compares the effects of fibroblast growth factors 1 and 2 on increasing cutaneous vasculature, improving ischemia, and preventing distal necrosis in ischemic skin flaps in rat model. METHODS Thirty rats were allocated into 3 groups (n=10) and 2×8 cm dorsal rando...
متن کاملNucleosomes bind fibroblast growth factor-2 for increased angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo.
Solid tumors often display sites of necrosis near regions of angiogenesis in vivo. As tumor cell necrosis would result in the release of nucleosomes into the extracellular environment, we explored the potential role of nucleosomes in the promotion of angiogenesis. Data indicate that nucleosomes acted similar to heparin and bound to several heparin-binding, proangiogenic factors [i.e., fibroblas...
متن کاملDistinct role of fibroblast growth factor-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor on tumor growth and angiogenesis.
Tumors express more than a single angiogenic growth factor. To investigate the relative impact of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on tumor growth and neovascularization, we generated tumor cell transfectants differing for VEGF and/or FGF-2 expression. Human endometrial adenocarcinoma HEC-1-B-derived Tet-FGF-2 cells that express FGF-2 under the co...
