Oxygen Tension Regulates the Expression of Angiogenesis Factor by Macrophages
Abstract
When cultured in a hypoxic environment similar to that found in the center of a wound, macrophages secreted active angiogenesis factor into the medium. Under conditions similar to those of well-oxygenated tissue, macrophages did not secrete active angiogenesis factor. Macrophages that secreted the factor at hypoxic conditions stopped secreting it when returned to room air. Thus the control of angiogenesis in wound healing may be the result of macrophages responding to tissue oxygen tension without the necessity of interacting with other cell types or biochemical signals.

The proliferative phase of wound healing involves cell proliferation, angiogenesis, new extracellular matrix deposition, and granulation tissue formation, processes largely mediated by the local microenvironment (pH, oxygen tension) and cytokines secreted by macrophages, T lymphocytes, and other wound-site cells.
“The proliferative phase of wound healing involves cellular proliferation, angiogenesis, new ECM deposition, and the formation of granulation tissue – processes that are largely mediated via the effects of the local microenvironment including pH and oxygen tension, and cytokines secreted by macrophages, T lymphocytes, and other cells within the wound site [91,98,99].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
