factor (VEGF), and angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) (Gilbert, 2000 and 2003). Overall, these factors are concentrated by the extracellular matrix of the mesenchymal cells at the sites of hematopoiesis, and they contribute to blood cell and lymphocyte formation

Measurement of Angiogenic Phenotype by Use of a Two Dimensional Mesenteric Angiogenesis Assay

can be identified. The adenoviral-mediated mesenteric angiogenesis assay as described here is ideal for that purpose. Adenoviruses expressing growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF] and angiopoietin 1 [Ang-1]) were injected into the mesenteric fat

this complex process alone or in synergy have been identified. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (3 ), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) (4 ), transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and angiopoietin
