Sustained and Efficient Delivery of Antivascular Endothelial Growth Factor by the Adeno-associated Virus for the Treatment of Corneal Neovascularization: An Outlook for Its Clinica... by Mengzhen Xie, Lixiang Wang, Yingping Deng, Ke Ma, Hongbo Yin, Xiaolan Zhang, Xingye Xiang, Jing Tang

“…Like retina neovascular diseases, corneal neovascularization also suffers from chronicity and a high risk of recurrence, necessitating sustained and efficient delivery across the epithelial barrier to reach deep layers of the corneal stroma. Among the explored methods, adeno-associated virus-mediated delivery of anti-VEGF to treat corneal neovascularization is the most extensively researched and most promising strategy for clinical translation although currently although, it remains predominantly at the preclinical stage. …”

Histomorphometric Evaluation of Superovulation Effect on Follicular Development after Autologous Ovarian Transplantation in Mice by Amin Tamadon, Alireza Raayat Jahromi, Farhad Rahmanifar, Mohammad Ayaseh, Omid Koohi-Hosseinabadi, Reza Moghiminasr

“…The effect of superovulation by pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) on autologous transplanted ovaries in the lumbar muscles of mice was histomorphometrically evaluated using the indices of number and volume of different kind of follicles and volume of corpora lutea, ovary, and stroma. Angiogenesis was observed after mouse ovarian transplantation on days 14 and 21 after ovarian grafting. …”

Pathological and Cytological Studies on Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Cattle Slaughtered at Bishoftu Elfora Abattoir, Central Ethiopia by Mesfin Mathewos

“…Moreover, on histopathology, the tumors divulged unencapsulated carcinomatous lesions consisting of a thick, compact, somewhat ambiguous trabecular pattern of arrangement that was unglued by thin collagenous stroma. Cytological studies suggest that the tumor cells showed anisocytosis, anisokaryosis, prominent nucleoli, multinuclearity, palisading arrangements of neoplastic cells, increased N : C ratios, light eosinophilic cytoplasm, high mitotic index, and cytoplasmic and intranuclear vacuoles. …”

Fibrin and Collagen Differentially but Synergistically Regulate Sprout Angiogenesis of Human Dermal Microvascular Endothelial Cells in 3-Dimensional Matrix by Xiaodong Feng, Marcia G. Tonnesen, Shaker A. Mousa, Richard A. F. Clark

“…Alteration of ECM composition and architecture is a hallmark feature of wound clot and tumor stroma. We previously reported that during angiogenesis, endothelial cell responses to growth factors are modulated by the compositional and mechanical properties of a surrounding three-dimensional (3D) extracellular matrix (ECM) that is dominated by either cross-linked fibrin or type I collagen. …”
