Elevated platelet-derived growth factor AB/BB is associated with a lower risk of recurrent vascular events in stroke patients.
BACKGROUND Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-AB and BB have been shown to possess angiogenic properties in vivo, and decreased levels have been linked to plaque instability in atherosclerosis. Little work has been done to determine if PDGF is associated with outcomes after stroke, in particular cognitive outcomes. Therefore, in this sudy, we investigated the association between PDGFand both...
متن کاملPlatelet-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 کاملParacrine interactions of vascular endothelial growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor in endothelial and lung cancer cells.
While the effects of single growth factors on endothelial cells (ECs) have been extensively studied, the importance of induction of growth factors such as PDGF-BB (platelet derived growth factor) in ECs and its impact on tumor cell functions are only partly understood. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were cultured under serum-free conditions and stimulated by 20 ng/ml VEGF (vasc...
متن کاملAntagonism of platelet-derived growth factor receptor in non small cell lung cancer: rationale and investigations.
Molecules that target growth and survival pathways in cancer cells have revolutionized the treatment of cancer. Imatinib mesylate is one such agent inhibiting the tyrosine kinase that results from the Bcr-Abl translocation. Imatinib is also a potent inhibitor of the platelet-derived growth factor receptor. The platelet-derived growth factor receptor is crucial in the regulation of interstitial ...
متن کاملPlatelet-derived growth factor concentrations in platelet-poor plasma and urine from patients with myeloproliferative disorders.
Our enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for measuring human platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) detects nanogram quantities (ranging from 0.007 to 16 ng/100 microL) in purified PDGF standards. This assay is sensitive enough for studying plasma and urine. The range in normal volunteers was 0.6 to 2.3 micrograms/L for platelet-poor plasma and 1.4 to 3.3 micrograms/L for urine. We determin...
