1 18676994 Proteins related to cell growth (CYR61, protein NOV, and clusterin) were increased, whereas growth arrest-specific 6 (GAS6) and growth/differentiation factor 6 were decreased by Ang II stimulation.
2 18676994 Ang II-stimulated changes of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, GAS6, cathepsin B, and periostin were validated by Western blot.
3 20654574 We identified a candidate marker, periostin, as well as several known PDR markers such as pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF).
4 22568101 Because clinical trials have shown that a neuroprotective factor, pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), could inhibit cell death in retinitis pigmentosa, we applied neuroprotective gene therapy using PEDF in a clinical setting.
5 22568101 To regulate the FVM, we performed global gene expression profiling of human FVMs associated with PDR and found that periostin was expressed more strongly in FVMs than in idiopathic epiretinal membranes.
6 22568101 In this study, immunohistochemical analysis showed colocalization of periostin and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in FVM cells.
7 22568101 Because clinical trials have shown that a neuroprotective factor, pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), could inhibit cell death in retinitis pigmentosa, we applied neuroprotective gene therapy using PEDF in a clinical setting.
8 22568101 To regulate the FVM, we performed global gene expression profiling of human FVMs associated with PDR and found that periostin was expressed more strongly in FVMs than in idiopathic epiretinal membranes.
9 22568101 In this study, immunohistochemical analysis showed colocalization of periostin and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) in FVM cells.
