Targeting Angiogenesis via Resolution of Inflammation

Abigail G. Kelly et al.

Summary: Angiogenesis and the resolution of inflammation are critical interdependent processes. Failure of inflammation resolution can accelerate tumor growth and the development of various diseases. Stimulating the resolution of inflammation promotes tissue healing, regeneration, and inhibits cancer.

Inflammation-Mediated Angiogenesis in Ischemic Stroke

Hua Zhu et al.

Summary: Stroke is the leading cause of disability and mortality in the world, and neovascularization plays a critical role in long-term neurologic recovery after ischemic stroke. Immune cells, cytokines, and growth factors are involved in the regulation of angiogenesis, but the mechanism of inflammation-mediated angiogenesis is not fully understood.

Astrocytic YAP protects the optic nerve and retina in an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis model through TGF-β signaling

Qian Wu et al.

Summary: The study showed that YAP was significantly upregulated and activated in astrocytes of optic nerve in EAE mice. Conditional knockout of YAP in astrocytes resulted in more severe inflammatory infiltration and demyelination in the optic nerve, as well as promoted activation of astrocytes and microglia while inhibiting astrocyte proliferation. The downregulation of the TGF-beta signaling pathway after YAP deletion in astrocytes was also observed, with potential therapeutic agents like SRI-011381 and XMU-MP-1 showing promising effects in rescuing optic nerve deficits and relieving neuroinflammation in EAE mice.

Exosome-mediated delivery of an anti-angiogenic peptide inhibits pathological retinal angiogenesis

Xue Dong et al.

Summary: The study utilized exosomes (EXOs) as carriers for delivering the anti-angiogenic peptide KV11 via retro-orbital injection, showing enhanced suppression of neovascularization and vascular leakage in the retina. This system has the potential to treat proliferative retinopathy in a less invasive manner compared to intravitreal injection.
