Confluent cultures of human endothelial cells deposit into extracellular matrix (ECM) distinct heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) which modulate acidic fibroblast growth factor's (aFGF) ability to stimulate human endothelial cell mitogenic capacity. Extracellular matrix 'IS-HSPG were isolated from

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), interleukin-I (IL-I), and epidermal growth factor (EGF) were mitogenic for human diploid FS-4 fibroblasts. Dexamethasone amplified the growth-stimulating action of all three agents. Amplification of the growth-stimulating action was maximal when dexamethasone was added a
Proliferation of endothelial cells is regulated by angiogenic and antiangiogenic factors whose actions are mediated by complex interactions of multiple signaling pathways. Both vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) stimulate cell proliferation and activa
When bovine capillary endothelial (BCE) cells were treated with 10 ng/ml of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) for 10 or 30 minutes at 37"C, washed extensively with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and incubated in bFGF-free medium, plasminogen activator (PA) production was stimulated to the same
Heparin and heparin-like molecules may function, apart from their effect on hemostasis, as regulators of cell growth and neovascularization. We investigated whether similar effects are exerted by laminarin sulfate, an unrelated polysulfated saccharide isolated from the cell wall of seaweed and compo
