Angiogenesis
Researchers from Burnham Institute for Medical Research publish findings in angiogenesis
July 8th, 2008
Scientists discuss in 'A novel Flk1-TVA transgenic mouse model for gene delivery to angiogenic vasculature' new findings in angiogenesis. According to recent research from the United States, "The genes that regulate the formation of blood vessels in adult tissues represent promising therapeutic targets because angiogenesis plays a role in many diseases, including cancer. We wished to develop a mouse model allowing characterization of gene function in adult angiogenic vasculature while minimizing effects on embryonic vasculature or adult quiescent vasculature." "Here we describe a transgenic mouse model that allows expression of proteins in the endothelial cells of newly...
