Does keratinocyte growth factor accelerate corneal epithelial wound healing in vivo?
Topical application of KGF accelerated corneal epithelial wound healing in vivo and increased cell proliferation in the limbal epithelium of the regenerating cornea.
The results indicate a zone-specific remodeling of tumor blood vessels by stabilization of vessels in TIZ and TCZ, whereas small vessels of these zones obviously undergo regression leading to tumor necrosis. Thus, a better understanding of vascular remodeling and stabilization in tumors would enable new strategies in tumor therapy and imaging.
