Platelet-derived growth factor.
Platelet-derived growth factor was purified from fresh platelets by a large-scale procedure not involving the use of SDS (sodium dodecyl sulphate). The product, 0.5 mg of platelet-derived growth factor, obtained from about 3 x 1013 platelets migrated as a single component in analytical gel electrophoresis in the presence of SDS and showed no inhomogeneity on sedimentation-equilibrium analysis i...
متن کاملNerve growth factor promotes cardiac repair following myocardial infarction.
RATIONALE Nerve growth factor (NGF) promotes angiogenesis and cardiomyocyte survival, which are both desirable for postinfarction myocardial healing. Nonetheless, the NGF potential for cardiac repair has never been investigated. OBJECTIVE To define expression and localization of NGF and its high-affinity receptor TrkA (tropomyosin-related receptor A) in the human infarcted heart and to invest...
متن کاملClinical manifestations of right ventricle involvement in inferior myocardial infarction
Abstract Background: Early diagnosis of right ventricle (RV) involvement in inferior myocardial infarction (Inf MI) is very critical. This study was performed to evaluate the clinical findings of Inf MI with or without RV infarction. Methods: From September 2010 to September 2012, 195 patients with definite diagnosis of Inf MI were evaluated in the Department of Cardiology, in Babol, north of...
متن کاملHypoxia-inducible factor-1 α/platelet derived growth factor axis in HIV-associated pulmonary vascular remodeling
BACKGROUND Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients are at increased risk for the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Recent reports have demonstrated that HIV associated viral proteins induce reactive oxygen species (ROS) with resultant endothelial cell dysfunction and related vascular injury. In this study, we explored the impact of HIV protein induced oxidative ...
متن کاملMyocardial Connective Tissue Growth Factor (CCN2/CTGF) Attenuates Left Ventricular Remodeling after Myocardial Infarction
AIMS Myocardial CCN2/CTGF is induced in heart failure of various etiologies. However, its role in the pathophysiology of left ventricular (LV) remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) remains unresolved. The current study explores the role of CTGF in infarct healing and LV remodeling in an animal model and in patients admitted for acute ST-elevation MI. METHODS AND RESULTS Transgenic mice ...
