Regression of atherosclerosis induced by liver-directed gene transfer of apolipoprotein A-I in mice.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and pulmonary emphysema, both significant global health problems, are characterized by a loss of alveoli. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a trophic factor required for endothelial cell survival and is abundantly expressed in the lung. METHODS AND RESULTS:We repo...
