statement of the problem: odontogenic keratocyst (okc) is a developmental odontogenic cyst with specific histopathological features, high recurrence rate, and aggressive clinical behavior. angiogenesis might be considered as an important factor for the growth, expansion, and distribution of this lesion. purpose: the aim of the present study was to determine the mean vascular densities (mvd) of ...

background: myocardial infarction is the main cause of death worldwide. angiogenesis, a promising new therapy for the treatment of diffuse coronary artery disease, shows a poor response to conventional revascularization techniques. this study focused on improving myocardial function using endothelial cells (ecs) and mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) in a sheep animal model. methods: acute myocardia...

Branching morphogenesis, a specialized part of leads to the formation microstructures (tubes, canals, and glands), source active organ functions. The dynamic mechanisms involved are appearance/disappearance biomolecules morphogens gradients. In context angiogenesis, growth factors allow initiation, regulation, remodeling blood vessels. particular case micro-vascularization, it seems essential r...

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).   ...

introduction: angiogenesis play an important role in many physiological processes (embryonic growth, tissue repair, etc) and also in pathological ones (diabetes, retinopathy, arthritis, tumor growth, etc). evaluation of endothelial cell growth and finally new vessel development in vivo is a complex and often difficult task. materials & methods: to address this issue an in vitro experimental ang...

some important compatibility that occur with exercise is increase of the capillary density or angiogenesis. vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) have mitogen role for endothelial cells and consider an important intermediary angiogenesis process. the purpose of this study was comparing the effect of two type of physical activity on response of serum vegf-a in non-athlete men. for this aim 1...

Angiogenesis is a vital process resulting in the formation of new blood vessels. It is normally a highly regulated process that occurs during human development, reproduction, and wound repair. However, angiogenesis can also become a fundamental pathogenic process found in cancer and several other diseases. To date, the inhibition of angiogenesis has been researched at both the bench and the bed...

Angiogenesis, a prominent feature of pathology, is known to be guided by factors secreted by living cells around a lesion. Although many cells are disrupted in a response to injury, the relevance of degenerating cells in pathological angiogenesis is unclear. Here, we show that the release of lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) from degenerating neurons drives central nervous system (CNS) angiogenesi...
