  1. 1. Angiogenic growth factors : mechanism of action and function in vascular development

    Författare :Charlotte Rolny; Andrius Kazlauskas; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Molecular medicine; PDGF-BB; VEGF; angiogenesis; hypoxia; migration; heparin; Molekylärmedicin; Molecular medicine genetics and pathology ; Molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ; Molecular Medicine; molekylär medicin genetik och patologi ;

    Sammanfattning : The mature vascular system is composed of a network of blood vessels organized into arteries, capillaries, and veins. The vessels are composed of endothelial cells surrounded by smooth muscle cells and embedded in a specialized basement membrane. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells and injections of microRNA as therapeutics for nervous system repair

    Författare :Mallappa K. Kolar; Lev N. Novikov; Paul J. Kingham; Mikael Wiberg; Elisabet Åkesson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; spinal cord injury; peripheral nerve injury; mesenchymal stem cells; regeneration; neurotrophic factor; angiogenic factor;

    Sammanfattning : Traumatic injuries to the spinal cord (SCI) and peripheral nerve (PNI) affect several thousand people worldwide every year. At present, there is no effective treatment for SCI and despite continuous improvements in microsurgical reconstructive techniques for PNI, many patients are still left with permanent, devastating neurological dysfunction.

  4. 3. The use of adipose derived stem cells in spinal cord and peripheral nerve repair

    Författare :Mallappa K Kolar; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; spinal cord injury; peripheral nerve injury; adipose derived stem cells; regeneration; neurotrophic factor; angiogenic factor;

    Sammanfattning : Clinically, injuries affecting the spinal cord or peripheral nerves can leave those affected with severe disability and, at present, there are limited options for treatment. Peripheral nerve injury with a significant gap between the proximal and distal stumps is currently treated with autologous nerve grafting but this is limited by availability of donor nerve and has associated morbidities.

  5. 4. Functional characterization of pro-angiogenic neutrophils

    Författare :Jalal Lomei; Mia Phillipson; Gustaf Christoffersson; Johan Kreuger; Lars Olaf Cardell; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; angiogenesis; leukocytes; neutrophils; pro-angiogenic neutrophils; islets transplantation; intravital microscopy; aortic ring assay; phagocytosis; ROS production; hypoxia; vascular permeability; neutrophil recruitment; Medical Cell Biology; Medicinsk cellbiologi;

    Sammanfattning : The vascular system stretches throughout the body to provide oxygen, nutrition, and to remove waste products from cell metabolism. Angiogenesis, formation of new blood vessels by sprouting from pre-existing vessels, is one of the main mechanisms involved in blood vessel formation. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Angiogenic mechanims in adipose tissue and tumor

    Författare :Sharon Siew Hoon Lim; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Angiogenesis is involved in the development and progression of many human diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular diseases, chronic inflammation, and metabolic diseases. Despite differences in microenvironment under various pathological settings, angiogenic blood vessels share some common features in numerous diseases. LÄS MER
