Inhibition of PAI-1 induces neutrophil-driven neoangiogenesis and promotes tissue regeneration via production of angiocrine factors in mice.
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), an endogenous inhibitor of a major fibrinolytic factor, tissue-type plasminogen activator, can both promote and inhibit angiogenesis. However, the physiologic role and the precise mechanisms underlying the angiogenic effects of PAI-1 remain unclear. In the present study, we report that pharmacologic inhibition of PAI-1 promoted angiogenesis and prevent...
متن کاملCyclooxygenase-2-regulated vascular endothelial growth factor release in gastric fibroblasts.
VEGF is a highly specific stimulator of endothelial cells and may play an important role in angiogenesis in the process of tissue regeneration. We previously showed that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expressed in mesenchymal cells of the ulcer bed is involved in the ulcer repair process. To clarify the role of COX-2 in angiogenesis during gastric ulcer healing, we investigated the relation between C...
متن کاملEnhanced angiogenesis through controlled release of basic fibroblast growth factor from peptide amphiphile for tissue regeneration.
In the present study, we hypothesized that a novel approach to promote vascularization would be to create injectable three-dimensional (3-D) scaffolds with encapsulated growth factor that enhance the sustained release of growth factor and induce the angiogenesis. We demonstrate that a 3-D scaffold can be formed by mixing of peptide-amphiphile (PA) aqueous solution with basic fibroblast growth f...
متن کاملAngiogenesis: the fundament of osseous regeneration
Abstract Introduction Bone formation, osseous regeneration and the associated physiological and pathologically altered angiogenesis are not only of vital importance in fracture repair but also play a constantly growing role in the diagnosis and treatment of chronically infected bone or osteonecrosis. The jaw and especially the mandible with its exceptional vascularization in the human body are ...
متن کاملDeterministic Simulation of Growth Factor-Induced Angiogenesis
Angiogenesis is the formation of new vessels from existing vasculature. The development and growth of new tissue in vivo requires adequate transport of nutrients to the tissue and removal of waste products. It is well known that vascular patterning and assembly plays a predominant role in controlling hemodynamic coupling and mass transport [1]. As molecular diffusion has an influence range of o...
