In this recent report published in the journal Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science, researchers in the United States conducted a study "To determine the impact of the antiangiogenic factor alpha 1(IV)NC1 on vascular endothelial growth factor-mediated proangiogenic activity in mouse retinal endothelial cells (MRECs). Primary culture of MRECs was established as previously described and was used to determine the effects of alpha 1(IV)NC1 on the proangiogenic activity of VEGF."
"Cell proliferation was evaluated using [H-3]-thymidine incorporation and 3,(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide colorimetric assays. Cell migration was ...
