Oiling vascular growth: adipokines can induce (pathological) angiogenesis by using the VEGF/VEGFR system.
Obesity is a major cardiovascular risk factor that has been associated with serious complications such as hypertension, dyslipidaemia, insulin resistance, diabetes, and the development of cardiovascular disease. Adipokines, bioactive peptides and cytokines produced by adipose tissue, play important roles in glucose and lipid metabolism, cell viability, energy homeostasis, immunity and—most impo...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor can induce angiogenesis independently of vascular endothelial growth factor.
OBJECTIVE Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) promotes vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression and induces angiogenesis in multiple pathological conditions. The present study was designed to delineate the HGF/SF and VEGF signaling cascades during angiogenesis by using PTK787, a selective VEGF receptor antagonist. METHODS AND RESULTS PTK787 produced a concentration-de...
متن کاملMiR-103 regulates the angiogenesis of ischemic stroke rats by targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)
Objective(s): To investigate the effect of miR-103 on the angiogenesis of ischemic stroke rats via targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) at the molecular level. Materials and Methods: Rat models had received the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) or sham operation before grouping, and cell models of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) were performed. FITC-dextran, matrigel, and ...
متن کاملPreclinical Development Celecoxib Can Induce Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression and Tumor Angiogenesis
Increased COX-2 expression has been linked to increased angiogenesis and a worse prognosis in patients with malignant gliomas and other tumor types. This led to our interest in assessing the response of glioma cell lines to treatmentwith celecoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor. However, contrary to its reported antiangiogenic effects, treatment with celecoxib actually induced the expression of V...
