Members of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family play a pivotal role in angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. They are potential therapeutics to induce blood vessel formation in myocardium and skeletal muscle, when normal blood flow is c

Human 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LO-1) is an oxidizing enzyme capable of producing reactive lipid hydroperoxides. 15-LO-1 and its products have been suggested to be involved in many pathological conditions, such as inflammation, atherogenesis, and carcino

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C and VEGF-D are composed of the receptor-binding VEGF homology domain and a carboxy-terminal silk homology domain that requires proteolytic cleavage for growth factor activation. Here, we explored whether th

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C and VEGF-D require proteolytic cleavage of the carboxy terminal silk-homology domain for activation. To study the functions of the VEGF-C propeptides, we engineered a chimeric growth factor protein, VEGF-CA

Background— For clinically relevant proangiogenic therapy, it would be essential that the growth of the whole vascular tree is promoted. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is well known to induce angiogenesis, but its capability to promote g

Stimulation of angiogenesis, arteriogenesis, and lymphangiogenesis (i.e., therapeutic vascular growth) is a new concept for the treatment of ischemic cardiovascular diseases. A wealth of information is already available about the mechanisms and media

Background— It is unclear what is the most efficient vector and growth factor for induction of therapeutic vascular growth in the heart. Furthermore, the histological nature of angiogenesis and potential side effects caused by different vascular en

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a hypoxia-inducible endothelial cell mitogen and survival factor. Its receptor VEGFR-2 (KDR/Flk-1) mediates these effects. We studied the expression of VEGF and VEGFR-2 in ischemic human and rabbit skeleta

Previous studies have shown that fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-1, FGF-2, and FGF-5 induce therapeutic angiogenesis. Here, we investigated the potential of FGF-4 for therapeutic neovascularization in comparison to vascular endothelial growth factor (

Aims We investigated the effects of angiogenic gene therapy with adenoviral placental growth factor131 (AdPlGF) on aerobic capacity and exercise tolerance in a rabbit hindlimb ischaemia model. We also assessed whether strong angiogenic changes such a
