Long-lasting fibrin matrices ensure stable and functional angiogenesis by highly tunable, sustained delivery of recombinant VEGF(164)

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Veronica Sacchi

Clinical trials of therapeutic angiogenesis by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene delivery failed to show efficacy. Major challenges include the need to precisely control in vivo distribution of growth factor dose and duration of expression. Re ...

Growth Factors Engineered for Super-Affinity to the Extracellular Matrix Enhance Tissue Healing

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Melody Swartz, Priscilla Suhasna Maithili Briquez, Esra Güç, Stéphanie Elisabeth Metzger

Growth factors (GFs) are critical in tissue repair, but their translation to clinical use has been modest. Physiologically, GF interactions with extracellular matrix (ECM) components facilitate localized and spatially regulated signaling; therefore, we rea ...

Inhibition of Fibroblast Growth by Notch1 Signaling Is Mediated by Induction of Wnt11-Dependent WISP-1

Freddy Radtke

Fibroblasts are an integral component of stroma and important source of growth factors and extracellular matrix (ECM). They play a prominent role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and in wound healing and tumor growth. Notch signaling regulates biological ...
