  2. 11. Mechanisms of Tissue Vascularization

    Author : Witold Kilarski; Pär Gerwins; Lena Claesson-Welsh; Andreas Bikfalvi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Pathology; vascularization; angiogenesis; granulation tissue; myofibroblast; wound healing; Patologi; Pathology; Patologi;

    Abstract : Tissue neovascularization in postnatal life occurs during post-traumatic tissue healing, neoplastic growth and in the endometrium during the reproductive cycle of females. Although embryonic angiogenesis has been intensively studied, far less is known about tissue revascularization and vessel remodeling in adults due to methodological difficulties. READ MORE

  4. 12. Inhibitors of corneal inflammation and angiogenesis : Prospectives and challenges

    Author : Pierfrancesco Mirabelli; Neil S Lagali; Beatrice Bourghardt Peebo; Francisco C Figueiredo; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Pathologic angiogenesis is involved in cancer and several blinding conditions such as wet age-related macular degeneration, proliferative retinopathies and corneal neovascularization.In these dieseases, the angiogenic triggers are hypoxia and inflammation, and both involve the main angiogenic mediator, which is Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF).

  5. 13. Experimental inhibition of proliferative retinopathy

    Author : Sylvia Almlöf Sarman; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Retinal ischemic diseases like retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), diabetic retinopathy (DRP) and retinal vein occlusion, with preretinal neovascularization (angiogenesis) that may lead to vitreous hemorrhages and retinal detachment with subsequent vision loss and blindness is a global health problem. By analyzing the potential role of molecules acting at different levels of the angiogenic cascade the presented studies aimed to widen our understanding of retinal ischemic diseases on a molecular, cellular and morphologic level.

  6. 14. Angiogenesis in obesity and cancer

    Author : Ebba Bråkenhielm; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Adiponectin; endothelial cells; Leptin; Resveratrol; TNP-470;

    Abstract : Angiogenesis is the process of blood vessel growth from pre-existing vasculatures. In the adult, it is involved in certain physiological processes, such as in organ and tissue regeneration, wound healing, and in female reproductive cycles. READ MORE

  7. 15. Regulation of inflammation and angiogenesis in the cornea

    Author : Anthony Mukwaya; Neil S Lagali; Beatrice Bourghardt Peebo; Lasse D Jensen; Thomas Ritter; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Inflammation and angiogenesis, the growth of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones, are involved in tumor growth, ocular diseases and wound healing. In ocular angiogenesis, new pathological vessels grow into a specific eye tissue, leak fluid, and disrupt vision. READ MORE
