Critical role of angiopoietins/Tie-2 in hyperglycemic exacerbation of myocardial infarction and impaired angiogenesis.

Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) are the two ligands of the Tie-2 receptor, a receptor tyrosine kinase that is expressed on the endothelium. A balanced angiopoietin/Tie-2 system is critical for the maintenance of vascular integrity. We investigated the potential role of a disrupted angiopoietin/Tie-2 system on hyperglycemic exacerbation of myocardial infarction and impaired ang...

Disruption of Ang-1/Tie-2 signaling contributes to the impaired myocardial vascular maturation and angiogenesis in type II diabetic mice.

OBJECTIVE Microvascular insufficiency represents a major cause of end-organ failure among diabetics. The current studies were undertaken to determine whether dysregulation of the angiopoietins/Tie-2 system would result in an impairment of smooth muscle cell (SMC) recruitment and vascular maturation, which contributes to impaired angiogenesis in diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS Tie-2 expression w...

Plasma angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2, angiopoietin receptor tie-2, and vascular endothelial growth factor levels in acute coronary syndromes.

BACKGROUND Angiopoietin (Ang) -1 and -2, their receptor Tie-2, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) regulate angiogenesis and may be important in myocardial collateral development. Elevated levels of growth factors and their receptors are reported in myocardial infarction (MI), but changes after an acute coronary event are unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS Plasma Ang-1, Ang-2, Tie-2, and ...

Circulating Angiopoietins-1 and -2, Angiopoietin Receptor Tie-2 and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-A as Biomarkers of Acute Myocardial Infarction: a Prospective Nested Case-Control Study

BACKGROUND Angiogenesis is up-regulated in myocardial ischemia. However, limited data exist assessing the value of circulating angiogenic biomarkers in predicting future incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Our aim was to examine the association between circulating levels of markers of angiogenesis with risk of incident acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in men and women. METHODS We...

Stimulated mast cells promote maturation of myocardial microvascular endothelial cell neovessels by modulating the angiopoietin-Tie-2 signaling pathway

Angiopoietin (Ang)-1 and Ang-2 interact in angiogenesis to activate the Tie-2 receptor, which may be involved in new vessel maturation and regression. Mast cells (MCs) are also involved in formation of new blood vessels and angiogenesis. The present study was designed to test whether MCs can mediate angiogenesis in myocardial microvascular endothelial cells (MMVECs). Using a rat MMVEC and MC co...
