The adult lung is perfused by both the systemic bronchial artery and the entire venous return flowing through the pulmonary arteries. In most lung pathologies, it is the smaller systemic vasculature that responds to a need for enhanced lung perfusion and shows robust neovascularization. Pulmonary vascular ischemia induced by pulmonary artery obstruction has been shown to result in rapid systemi...

Actively growing tumor cells shed membrane vesicles into the extracellular milieu both in vivo and in vitro. Extracellular membrane vesicles from tumor cells contain most surface antigens and proteases present on these cells. They facilitate the escape of tumors from immune surveillance and promote tumor cell invasion. Here, we demonstrate that tumor membrane vesicles stimulate an additional im...

Background Myricetin has been shown to possess potential antiangiogenic effects in endothelial cells. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Therefore, we evaluated its antiangiogenic effects in human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods HUVECs were cultured in endothelial cell growth medium-2 to induce proliferation and angiogenesis and treated with di...

Pathological scarring at the present stage does not have a clear pathogenetic justification, it is characterized by unpredictability and constant growth of keloid scars, absence regression for many years reasonable treatment. Despite fact that there possibility extirpation excess tissue, almost impossible to remove scars without recurrence. The paper presents phenotyping data in structure cellu...

Angiogenesis has long been recognized as an essential element in tumor growth. Since the conception of antiangiogenesis for cancer therapeutics, great strides have been made in understanding the molecular biology underlying angiogenesis, both in cancer and in physiology. By capitalizing on these advancements through bench-to-bedside research, potent antiangiogenic agents have been developed and...
