Hydrogen sulfide improves vessel formation of the ischemic adductor muscle and wound healing in diabetic db/db mice
Objective(s): It has been demonstrated that hydrogen sulfide plays a vital role in physiological and pathological processes such as regulating inflammation, oxidative stress, and vessel relaxation. The aim of the study was to explore the effect of hydrogen sulfide on angiogenesis in the ischemic adductor muscles of type 2 diabetic db/db mice and ischemic diabetic wound...
متن کاملAssessment of Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) Effects on Development of Vitrified Mouse Morulae to the Blastocyst Stage
Many investigators are interested in finding the new cultural systems that can support the in vitro development of pre-implantation embryos better. Previous studies suggested that growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) are important in pre-implantation embryo development and implantation process. On the other hand, it is very important to support post thaw development of frozen em...
متن کاملDetermination the Effects of Epidermal Growth Factor on Developmental Rates of Pre-Implantation Mouse Embryo
Purpose: To determine the effects of different doses of addition of exogenous epidermal growth factor (EGF) on development of pre-implantation mouse embryo. Materials and Methods: Mouse zygotes, two cell, 8 cell any morulae were collected from superovulated NMRI mice 24, 48, 64 and 80 hrs after hCG injection, respectively. The obtained embryos were cultured on medium alone, medium with 1, 4 an...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor attenuates blood‐spinal cord barrier disruption via PI3K/Akt/Rac1 pathway after acute spinal cord injury
After spinal cord injury (SCI), disruption of blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) elicits blood cell infiltration such as neutrophils and macrophages, contributing to permanent neurological disability. Previous studies show that epidermal growth factor (EGF) produces potent neuroprotective effects in SCI models. However, little is known that whether EGF contributes to the integrity of BSCB. The pr...
متن کاملAngiotensin AT(1) and AT(2) receptors differentially regulate angiopoietin-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor expression and angiogenesis by modulating heparin binding-epidermal growth factor (EGF)-mediated EGF receptor transactivation.
Angiotensin II (Ang II)-mediated signals are transmitted via heparin binding epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like growth factor (HB-EGF) release followed by transactivation of EGF receptor (EGFR). Although Ang II and HB-EGF induce angiogenesis, their link to the angiopoietin (Ang)-Tie2 system remains undefined. We tested the effects of Ang II on Ang1, Ang2, or Tie2 expression in cardiac microvasc...
