Molecular analysis of blood vessel formation and disease.
Blood vessels affect the quality of life in many ways. They provide an essential nutritive function during growth and repair of tissues but, on the other hand, can become affected by disorders or trauma, resulting in bleeding, thrombosis, arterial stenosis, and atherosclerosis. Three molecular systems, the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) system, the plasminogen system, and the coagula...
متن کاملBlood vessel maturation: vascular development comes of age.
are the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate new vessel formation and maturation? This question identifies several fundamental issues of vascular biology related to the development of the vasculature via vasculogene-sis and angiogenesis. Early investigations of vasculature were largely descriptive (1, 2). The advent of methods for the isolation and maintenance of vascular cells in ti...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms of blood vessel growth.
The basic molecular mechanisms governing how endothelial cells, periendothelial cells and matrix molecules interact with each other and with numerous growth factors and receptors, to form blood vessels have been presented. The many insights gained from this basic knowledge are being extended to further understand pathological angiogenesis associated with disorders such as arterial stenosis, myo...
متن کاملNotch controls retinal blood vessel maturation and quiescence.
Blood vessels form a hierarchically organized network of arteries, capillaries and veins, which develops through a series of growth, pruning and maturation processes. In contrast to the rapidly increasing insight into the processes controlling vascular growth and, in particular, endothelial sprouting and proliferation, the conversion of immature vessels into a fully functional, quiescent vascul...
متن کاملLow-molecular-weight S-nitrosothiols and blood vessel injury.
S-nitrosothiol signaling reactions are argued to play key modulatory roles in mediating the actions of NOS in health and disease. A report by Palmer et al. in this issue of the JCI provides new insight into the in vivo biology of S-nitrosothiols (see the related article beginning on page 2592). The authors examine the chronic effects of exogenous nitrosothiol therapy and demonstrate that the co...
