Journal Article
Oltean, S., Qiu, Y., Ferguson, J. K., Stevens, M., Neal, C., Russell, A., …Salmon, A. H. (2015). Vascular endothelial growth factor-A165b is protective and restores endothelial glycocalyx in diabetic nephropathy. Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 26(8), https://doi.org/10.1681/ASN.2014040350

Diabetic nephropathy is the leading cause of ESRD in high-income countries and a growing problem across the world. Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) is thought to be a critical mediator of vascular dysfunction in diabetic nephropathy, yet...

Vascular endothelial growth factor-A165b prevents diabetic neuropathic pain and sensory neuronal degeneration (2015)
Journal Article
Hulse, R. P., Beazley-Long, N., Ved, N., Bestall, S. M., Riaz, H., Singhal, P., …Donaldson, L. F. (2015). Vascular endothelial growth factor-A165b prevents diabetic neuropathic pain and sensory neuronal degeneration. Clinical Science, 129(8), https://doi.org/10.1042/CS20150124

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy affects up to half of diabetic patients. This neuronal damage leads to sensory disturbances, including allodynia and hyperalgesia. Many growth factors have been suggested as useful treatments for prevention of neurodege...
