Angiogenesis
New angiogenesis research from Anna University described
November 13th, 2009
"Cadmium, a ubiquitous heavy metal, interferes with endothelial functions and angiogenesis. Bradykinin is a Camobilizing soluble peptide that acts via nitric oxide to promote vasodilation and capillary permeability," researchers in Madras, India report. "The objective of the present study was to explore the Cd implications in bradykinin-dependent endothelial functions. An egg yolk angiogenesis model was employed to evaluate the effect of Cd on bradykinin-induced angiogenesis. The results demonstrate that 100 nmol/L Cd attenuated bradykinin-dependent angiogenesis. The results of the in vitro wound healing and tube formation assays by using EAhy 926, a transformed...
