Figure 1From: Cyclosporin A differentially inhibits multiple steps in VEGF induced angiogenesis in human microvascular endothelial cells through altered intracellular signalingVEGF, but not TNF-α/LPS stimulation of HIMEC results in enhanced cell growth. HIMEC monolayers stimlulated with VEGF (50 ng/ml) for 24 hr resulted in a significant increase in cell number, while TNF-α/LPS had essentially no effect and was similar to unstimulated cell growth.Back to article page
