Myocardial angiogenesis after plasmid or adenoviral VEGF-A165 gene transfer in rat myocardial infarction model
21 Oct 2006
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To compare gene transfer of plasmid (P) and adenovirus (Ad) encoding human vascular endothelial growth factor-A165 (hVEGF-A165) angiogenic efficacy and adverse effects as regards apoptosis and ectopic expression of the transgene in a rat myocardial infarction model. METHODS: Myocardial infarction was provoked in Fisher rats. One week later, PhVEGF-A165, PLacZ, AdhVEGF-A165, or AdLacZ was transferred...
