Generation of free radicals upon reperfusion has been cited as one of the major causes of ischaemia/reperfusion injury. The following series of experiments was designed to study the effect of… Expand
Upregulation of vascular endothelial growth factor by H2O2 in rat heart endothelial cells.
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a reactive oxygen species generated by several metabolic pathways in mammalian cells. Endothelial cells are extremely susceptible to oxidative stress. H2O2 has been… Expand
Humanin Is a Novel Neuroprotective Agent Against Stroke
Background and Purpose— Humanin (HN) is a 24-amino acid peptide best known for its ability to protect neurons from damage caused by Alzheimer disease-related proteins. This study examines the… Expand
Upregulation of vascular endothelial growth factor by angiotensin II in rat heart endothelial cells.
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent mitogen for endothelial cells and a vascular permeability factor. In this study we found that the addition of angiotensin II (AII) to rat heart… Expand
