Unraveling the Role of EphA4 in Immune-Mediated Arteriogenesis After Ischemic Stroke
… artery (MCA). Pre-existing leptomeningeal collateral (LMC) vessels connect MCA branches to anterior or posterior arteries, situated along the brain's cortical surface or meninges, under healthy conditions these vessels remain dormant due to their small diameters and relatively low flow …

INVESTIGATION OF GENETIC FACTORS DETERMINING ISCHEMIC STROKE OUTCOME
… of infarct volume, the extent of native collateral circulation and neuroprotection. Using the infarct volume screening panel from 32 inbred strains, we observed that infarct volume is inversely correlated with the native collateral vessel number. However, among these inbred strains, we …

Biomechanical regulation of arteriogenesis : defining critical endothelial-dependent events
… remodeling process in which pre-existing collateral arterioles remodel to form large diameter conductance arteries, has received recent attention for its therapeutic potential in treating CHD, but the mechanisms regulating the process remain incompletely understood. In particular, little …

Major Collateral Vessels Develop from Pre-existing Small Arteries through RAC2/NOX2 Independent Mechanisms
… on which vascular segment or what size of vessels is most important in the process of collateral growth, the degree to which these vessels can enlarge, or the mechanisms that mediate collateral vessel expansion and its impairment. Chapter I identifies the major collateral vessels that …

Eph-mediated restriction of cerebrovascular arteriogenesis
… neural tissue regions. Enhancement of pial collateral remodeling (Arteriogenesis) has recently been shown to improve blood flow and mitigate neural tissue damage following stroke (1-3). Arteriogenesis is the remodeling of pre-existing arteriole vessel which are able to re-route blood to …
