摘要: Objective: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced vascular permeability has been shown to be dependent on calcium influx, possibly through a transient receptor potential cation channel (TRPC)-mediated with properties of the TRPC3/6/7 subfamily. To investigate further involvement this subfamily, we determined effects dominant negative TRPC6 overexpression VEGF-mediated changes human microvascular cell (HMVEC) calcium, proliferation, migration, and sprouting. Methods: Cytoplasmic concentration was estimated by fura-2 fluorescence spectrophotometry, migration Boyden chamber assay, sprouting immunofluorescence imaging stimulated cells, proliferation flow cytometry. Results: Overexpression construct in HMVECs inhibited increases cytosolic sprouting, proliferation. In contrast, wild-type increased prolifera...
