Association of serum angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2 and angiopoietin-2 to angiopoietin-1 ratio with heart failure in patients with acute myocardial infarction
The aim of the present study was to investigate the association of the serum angiopoietin (Ang)-1 and Ang-2 levels and the Ang-2 to Ang-1 ratio (Ang-2/Ang-1) with heart failure (HF) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) during hospitalization. The serum Ang-1 and Ang-2 levels of the AMI patients were measured at admission to hospital. The correlations between serum Ang-1, Ang-2 and...
متن کاملPlasma angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2, and angiopoietin receptor tie-2 levels in congestive heart failure.
OBJECTIVES The goal of this research was to test the hypothesis that plasma angiopoietin (Ang-1), its soluble receptor tie-2, and Ang-2 levels would be abnormal in patients with acute and chronic congestive heart failure (CHF) when compared with healthy controls. BACKGROUND Increased plasma vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in CHF is suggestive of excess angiogenesis-possibly driven b...
متن کاملAngiopoietin-1/angiopoietin-2 ratio for prediction of preeclampsia.
BACKGROUND A number of different biophysical and biochemical markers have been proposed as predictors of preeclampsia. Factors involved in the angiogenic balance are suggested as candidate markers. The purpose of this prospective, longitudinal cohort study was to determine whether a ratio between Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) can be used to predict preeclampsia in a low-risk...
متن کاملRatio of Angiopoietin-2 to Angiopoietin-1 predicts mortality in acute lung injury induced by paraquat
BACKGROUND To determine whether initial reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced endothelial cell injury is involved in early death after paraquat intoxication and concentrations of angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1), angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), and von Willebrand factor (VWF) reflecting endothelial cell injury, we investigated the initial endothelial cell injury marker involved in the pathogenesis of death withi...
متن کاملReciprocal regulation of angiopoietin-1 and angiopoietin-2 following myocardial infarction in the rat.
OBJECTIVE This study sought to characterize changes in the angiopoietin system in a rat model of myocardial infarction (MI). BACKGROUND Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) bind to the endothelial-specific receptor tyrosine kinase, TIE-2. Ang-2 has been suggested to be an antagonist of TIE-2, possibly acting to release endothelial cells from the tonic stabilizing influence of Ang...
