Do cognitive and motor impairments predict functional declines in patients with vascular dementia?
These results suggest that attentional/executive and motor impairments may underlie specific aspects of functional disability among patients with VaD.
In contrast with its roles in mature endothelial cells, Ang2 has proangiogenic activities in EPC directly through Tie2 signaling pathway. Such a cell-dependent differential reactivity of Ang2 was for the first time found to be modulated by physical association between Tie1 and Tie2, which inhibited Ang2-mediated Tie2 activation.
