Example sentences for: neovascularization

How can you use “neovascularization” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • In conclusion, the dominance of Ang-1 over Ang-2 expression favors active neovascularization in RA synovial tissue.

  • Macrophages are key angiogenesis effector cells that produce a number of growth factor stimulators and inhibitors, proteolytic enzymes and cytokines that can activate one or more steps in the angiogenesis cascade [ 15 16 17 ] . Recent studies have shown that angiopoietins promote postnatal neovascularization by potentiating angiogenic cytokines such as VEGF [ 9 10 ] .

  • Several eyes had peripheral corneal thinning while others demonstrated scleralization (opacity) of the peripheral cornea, diffuse corneal haze, or peripheral neovascularization (Figure 2C).

  • VEGF has also been shown to mediate the vessel growth that characterizes tumor expansion as well as the neovascularization that is associated with diabetic retinopathy.

  • Interestingly Ang-2 acts as an agonist for Tie2 receptors expressed on fibroblasts [ 6 ] . Since the neovascularization process is dependent on the dominance of angiogenic mediators over inhibitors, the higher Ang-1 mRNA and protein expression compared to Ang-2 in RA synovial tissue is of importance.
