The effects of bradykinin and angiotensin II on the thoracic aorta vasa sasorum microcirculation system
Vasa vasorum forms a network of microvessels within and around the walls of large blood vessels and is thought to be necessary to deliver oxygenated blood to the outer parts of the vessel wall that are inadequately nourished by diffusion from luminal blood. Vasa vasorum flow, therefore, may play an …

Multiphysics Computational Model of Fluid Flow and Mass Transport in Aneurysm
… AAA geometric features, and the effect of the vasa vasorum. Results confirm that the presence of an ILT reduces oxygen flux to the wall. Highly sensitive parameters such as the effect of the vasa vasorum and wall diffusivity are identified.</p>

Impact of Percutaneous Transluminal Intervention on Vascular Hypoxia and the Role of Micro-calcifications on Atherosclerotic Plaque Rupture
… <p>In this dissertation, we first explored Vasa Vasorum (VV) compression after PTI as the root cause of vascular hypoxia and then analysed the effect of micro-calcifications (µCalcs) as a high-risk indicator of plaque vulnerability. To achieve this, we combined numerical simulations on …

Stimulating angiogenesis into biomaterials through the delivery of growth factors
… host tissue, transmural ingrowth of tissue and vasa vasorum might have to be facilitated. Since VEGF1ss and PDGF-BB are growth factors known to stimulate and consolidate angiogenesis, this PhD thesis hypothesized, that neovascularisation of porous polyurethane (PU) can be increased by delivery …
