  1. 1. Experimental therapies of malignant glioma : with emphasis on angiogenesis inhibition

    Författare :Maria Sandström; Roger Henriksson; Mikael Johansson; Anja Smits; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; glioma; angiogenesis; VEGF; tyrosinekinaseinhibitor; ZD6474; plasminogenactivator; tPA; uPA; proteomics; Oncology; Onkologi;

    Sammanfattning : Malignant glioma consists of a group of diseases where the localisation and the nature of the disease makes treatment an extreme challenge. Two important biological features of malignant glioma cells are their infiltrative growth and their ability to induce angiogenesis. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Molecular Mechanisms of Action of Histidine-rich Glycoprotein in Angiogenesis Inhibition

    Författare :Chunsik Lee; Lena Claesson-Welsh; Jan Palmblad; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Cell and molecular biology; anti-angiogenesis; angiogenesis inhibitor; endothelial cell; histidine-rich glycoprotein; focal adhesion; tumor-associated macrophages; VEGF; MMP; Cell- och molekylärbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis, de novo synthesis of blood vessels from the pre-existing vasculature, is required both during embryonic development and in pathophysiological conditions. In particular, tumor growth needs new capillary vessels in order to both deliver oxygen and nutrients and to remove toxin and metabolites. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Vascular endothelial growth factor receptors in angiogenesis

    Författare :Kui Huang; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Genetics; endothelial cells; VEGF receptor; signal transduction; pertide; angiogenesis; Genetik; Clinical genetics; Klinisk genetik; Medical Biochemistry; medicinsk biokemi;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is a process in which new capillaries sprout from preexisting blood vessels. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promotes endothelial cell proliferation and migration and thereby stimulates angiogenesis. VEGF receptors (VEGFRs) have been implicated as key regulatory components in endothelial cells. LÄS MER

  5. 4. The Role of Histidine-rich Glycoprotein in Angiogenesis and Tumor Growth

    Författare :Åsa Thulin; Anna-Karin Olsson; Pirjo Laakkonen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Histidine-rich glycoprotein; HRG HRGP HPRG; angiogenesis inhibitor; cancer; VEGF; platelets; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) is a heparin-binding plasma protein modulating immune, hemostatic and vascular functions. I have studied the antiangiogenic functions of HRG in vitro and in vivo in order to understand the molecular mechanisms of action of HRG as an angiogenesis inhibitor. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Molecular Mechanisms in Endothelial Cell Differentiation

    Författare :Emma Rennel; Pär Gerwins; Lena Claesson-Welsh; Ian Zachary; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; angiogenesis; FGF-2; VEGF-A; signal transduction; in vitro angiogenesis assay; immortalized brain endothelial cells; H-Ras; tetracycline-regulated gene expression; microarray; telomerase immortalized human microvascular endothelial cells; differentiation; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is the formation of new blood vessels from the pre-existing blood vessels. Blood vessels are composed of endothelial cells and supporting musculature. Angiogenesis is regulated by numerous soluble ligands and by cell-matrix interactions. LÄS MER
