Heme oxygenase-1 increases endothelial progenitor cells.
OBJECTIVE Induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) protects against atherosclerotic disease in part by promoting reendothelialization. As endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) contribute to reendothelialization, we examined the role of HO-1 on bone marrow and circulating EPCs. METHODS AND RESULTS In a rabbit model of aortic balloon injury, pharmacological induction of HO-1 enhanced reendothelializa...
متن کاملEndogenous and exogenous ®broblast growth factor-2 modulate wound healing in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane
Re-epithelization and the formation of a granulation tissue consisting of in ̄ammatory cells, newly formed blood vessels, and ®broblasts embedded in a loose collagenous extracellular matrix, are critical events occurring during wound healing. In this study, utilizing the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) as an in vivo model of wound healing, we investigated the role of endogenous and e...
متن کاملHomocysteine Induces Heme Oxygenase-1 Expression via Transcription Factor Nrf2 Activation in HepG2 Cells
Background: Elevated level of plasma homocysteine has been related to various diseases. Patients with hyperhomocysteinemia can develop hepatic steatosis and fibrosis. We hypothesized that oxidative stress induced by homocysteine might play an important role in pathogenesis of liver injury. Also, the cellular response designed to combat oxidative stress is primarily controlled by the transcripti...
متن کاملApplication of the Chick Embryo Chorioallantoic Membrane in Neurosurgery Disease
The chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) is a highly vascularized extraembryonic membrane. Because of its ease of accessibility, extensive vascularization and immunodeficient environment, the CAM has been broadly used in the oncology, biology, pharmacy, and tissue regeneration research. The present review summarizes the application of the CAM in neurosurgery disease research. We focused ...
متن کاملEvaluating the Effects of Enrofloxacin on Angiogenesis Using the Chick Embryo Chorioallantoic Membrane Model
Objective- Because little information was available in the literature about the angiogenic property of enrofloxacin, this investigation was undertaken to evaluate this aspect using an in vivomodel. Design- Experimental study. Animals- Twenty fertile chicken eggs (Ross 308) with the average egg-weight of 55 ± 0.4 g were rand...
