Angiogenesis
New angiogenesis findings from C. Roesli and co-authors described
August 26th, 2008
"The formation of blood vessels (angiogenesis) and of lymphatic vessels (lymphangiogenesis) actively contributes to cancer progression and inflammation. Thus, there has been a quest for identifying the molecular mechanisms that control lymphatic and blood vessel formation and function," scientists writing in the Faseb Journal report. "Membrane and extracellular matrix proteins can serve as suitable targets for imaging and/or therapeutic targeting; however, conventional proteomic technologies often fail to identify them systematically due to insolubility in water and low abundance of membrane proteins. To circumvent this problem, we applied a gel-free proteomics...
