Mechanisms by which fibroblast growth factors stimulate DNA synthesis in coronary venular endothelial cells : a dissertation /

ABSTRACT: Coronary angiogenesis, the formation of new microvessels in the heart, depends upon proliferation and migration of coronary venular endothelial cells (CVEC). We examined the molecular interactions of the angiogenic polypeptides, acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors (aFGF and bFGF, r...
