Abstract

Background—Human tissue kallikrein (HK) releases kinins from kininogen. We investigated whether adenovirus-mediated HK gene delivery is angiogenic in the context of ischemia. Methods and Results—Hindlimb ischemia, caused by femoral artery excision, increased muscular capillary density (P<0.001) and induced the expression of kinin B 1 receptor gene (P<0.05). Pharmacological blockade of B 1 receptors blunted ischemia-induced angiogenesis (P<0.01), whereas kinin B 2 receptor antagonism was ineffective. Intramuscular delivery of adenovirus containing the HK gene (Ad.CMV-cHK) enhanced the increase in capillary density caused by ischemia (969±32 versus 541±18 capillaries/mm 2 for control,P<0.001), accelerated blood flow recovery (P<0.01), and preserved energetic charge of ischemic muscle (P<0.01). Chronic blockade of kinin B 1 or B 2 receptors prevented HK-induced angiogenesis. Conclusions—HK gene delivery enhances the native angiogenic response to ischemia. Angiogenesis gene therapy with HK might be applicable to peripheral occlusive vascular disease.

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.
