Recent evidence has shown that cell proliferation in the adult hippocampal dentate gyrus
occurs in tight clusters located near the vasculature. Also, changes in neurogenesis often …

Podocyte-derived vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is upregulated in diabetes and
may contribute to albuminuria. Although believed to act upon the glomerular endothelium …

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and dexamethasone (DX) release from hydrogel
coatings were examined as a means to modify tissue inflammation and induce …

Angiogenesis is essential in tumor development to maintain the oxygen and nutrient supply.
Glucocorticoids have shown both direct and indirect angiostatic properties in various types …

This study investigated whether exercise training could prevent the negative side effects of
dexamethasone. Rats underwent a training period and were either submitted to a running …

Aldosterone levels are markedly elevated during normal pregnancy but fall even though
volume contracts when preeclampsia occurs. The level of aldosterone in either condition …

The mass of healthy adult tissues is stable and their vasculature is quiescent, but this
equilibrium is disrupted under certain physiological or pathological situations. There is an …

Preeclampsia (PE) is a life-threatening hypertensive disorder during pregnancy associated
with decreased circulating aldosterone levels. However, the molecular mechanisms …

In vitro monolayer conditions are not able to reproduce the complexity of solid tumors, still,
there is scarce information about the 3D cell culture models of endocrine tumor types …

Background Since the early stages of tumorigenesis involve adhesion, escape from immune
surveillance, vascularization and angiogenesis, we devised a strategy to study the …
