Sentences with phrase «protein vascular endothelial growth factor»

At the same time, the protein Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) stimulates blood supply for the damaged tissue, Fibroblast Growth Factor - 2 (FGF - 2) stimulates the damaged cells to grow and reproduce themselves, Transforming Growth Factor - beta (TGF - beta) stimulates cartilage to grow, and Stem Cell Factor (SCF) stimulates your native inactive stem cells to become activated and assist in the repair of the damaged tissue.

Not exact matches

This happens because the loss of blood flow in a vessel causes the local oxygen level to drop, which stimulates local production of vascular endothelial growth factor, or VEGF, a protein which in most tissues causes the growth of new blood vessels to repair damage.

And they incorporated into the gel a protein known as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which encourages the growth of blood vessels into the transplanted cells.

Among dozens of mouse studies, he presented work led by Moderna Co-Founder Kenneth Chien, then at Harvard Medical School in Boston, showing that mice recovering from induced heart attacks survived longer and had stronger hearts when injected with mRNA encoding a protein that drives blood vessel formation — vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).

A critical discovery in this research was finding that the novel progenitor has a receptor protein on its cell surface called KDR, or vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2, which until now, was thought to be restricted to endothelial cells that form vessels, the progenitors for endothelial cells and the progenitors blood cells.

During the creation of new blood vessels, the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) protein differentiates stem cells into vascular endothelial cells and stimulates them to create new blood vessels.

This happens because the loss of blood flow in a blood vessel causes the local oxygen level to drop, which stimulates local production of vascular endothelial growth factor, or VEGF, a protein that in most tissues causes the growth of new blood vessels to repair damage.

Other research has shown that oxygen - deprived cells in the retina produce a type of protein called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which triggers the growth of new blood vessels in the retina.

For the analysis of mRNA levels for asparagine synthetase (ASNS), CHOP (CCAAT / enhancer - binding protein homologous protein), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), glucose transporter 1 (Slc2a1) and monocarboxylate transporter 4 (Slc16a3), RT - PCR as well as qPCR were used.

From these cell based and clinical studies, we have developed important mechanistic ideas such as activation of protein kinase C, the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and selective insulin resistance as some of the basic mechanisms for the pathogenesis of diabetic microvascular and cardiovascular diseases which are now widely studied by multiple laboratories.

The researchers found that, when stimulated by insulin, diabetic fibroblasts produced less of the VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) signaling protein, a key player in boosting the growth of blood vessel cells, than normal fibroblasts did.

Under hypoxic conditions activates the transcription of over 40 genes, including, erythropoietin, glucose transporters, glycolytic enzymes, vascular endothelial growth factor, and other genes whose protein products increase oxygen delivery or facilitate metabolic adaptation to hypoxia.

The use of targeting antibodies against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a protein that promotes tumor growth and spread, plus chemotherapy has prolonged disease free survival in several different tumor types in man.
