Presence of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Progressive Equine Ethmoid Hematoma

نویسنده

  • James A. Orsini
چکیده

Tissue samples from four progressive ethmoid hematomas were positive for expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), also known as vascular permeability factor. VEGF is known to have an important role in tumor biology, including but not limited to angiogenesis, malignant ascites, and the proliferative retinopathies. Further study of its activity in ethmoid hematoma could provide new insight into the natural history of this uncommon lesion, and perhaps into medical approaches to prevent recurrence.

Molecular Study of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Gene in Iranian Patients after Myocardial Infarction

Background: Stimulation of collateral artery growth (arteriogenesis) and/or capillary network growth (angiogenesis) would be beneficial to the patients with myocardial infarction. To understand the central role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in biological angiogenesis, we performed molecular analysis of the VEGF gene in patients afflicted with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Me...

Background and Objective: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, in which cortical and hippocampus neurons death is the main target of neurodegeneration. In addition to extracellular beta amyloid accumulation and the production of neural tangles, one of effective factors in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease is vascular injury in the elderly including disturbanc...
