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.
