Angiogenic response in an in vitro model of dog microvascular endothelial cells stimulated with antigenic extracts from Dirofilaria immitis adult wor…
2019
Abstract Background Angiogenesis can occur under pathological conditions when stimuli such as inflammation, vascular obstruction or hypoxia exist. These stimuli are present in cardiopulmonary dirofilariosis (Dirofilaria immitis). The aim of this study was to analyze the capacity of D. immitis antigens to modify the expression of angiogenic factors and trigger the formation of pseudocapillaries (tube-like structures) in an in vitro model of endothelial cells. Methods The expression of VEGF-A, sFlt, mEndoglin and sEndoglin in cultures of canine microvascular endothelial cells stimulated with extract of adult worms of D. immitis obtained from an untreated dog (DiSA) and from a dog treated for …
Role of Ocular Angiogenic Factors in the Development of Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration
2020
Abstract Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive degenerative eye disease. Neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) is the advanced form of AMD characterised by abnormal growth of newly formed blood vessels in chorioidea which typically involves fluid accumulation in the retina or retinal haemorrhage, retinal epithelial detachments, hard exudate or subretinal scars. The process of angiogenesis is controlled by ocular angiogenic factors, which have enabled the development of different treatment options aimed at these factors. This review aims to compile the available information about the most commonly identified ocular angiogenic factors, uncovering their role in …

Efecto de la radiación ionizante persistente a bajas dosis en la angiogénesis del carcinoma renal de células claras : estudio morfométrico comparativ…
2013
La angiogénesis en el carcinoma de células renales claras (ccRCC) es un proceso influenciado por sustancias producidas en su mayoría por el tumor en respuesta a una reestructuración vascular necesaria en su etapa de crecimiento y metástasis. La exposición persistente a bajas dosis de radiación ionizante (CPLDIR) ha sido asociada a modificaciones nucleares que estimulan la proliferación celular neoplásica. Sus efectos en el proceso de neovascularización de los ccRCC han sido poco estudiados. Métodos: Estudiamos a través de un estudio morfométrico semiautomático e inmunohistoquímico, la densidad microvascular (MVD) y la expresión de factores angiogénicos en 124 pacientes con ccRCC de regiones…
