The Endothelial-Specific MicroRNA miR-126 Governs Vascular Integrity and Angiogenesis

TL;DR: It is shown that an endothelial cell-restricted microRNA (miR-126) mediates developmental angiogenesis in vivo and enhances the proangiogenic actions of VEGF and FGF and promotes blood vessel formation by repressing the expression of Spred-1, an intracellular inhibitor of angiogenic signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA-126-5p promotes endothelial proliferation and limits atherosclerosis by suppressing Dlk1

TL;DR: It is shown that endothelial miR-126-5p maintains a proliferative reserve in ECs through suppression of the Notch1 inhibitor delta-like 1 homolog (Dlk1) and thereby prevents atherosclerotic lesion formation and introduces a potential therapeutic approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

AngiomiRs--key regulators of angiogenesis.

TL;DR: Manipulating angiomiRs in the settings of pathological vascularization represents a new therapeutic approach in regulating endothelial cell function, especially angiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of angiogenesis and choroidal neovascularization by members of microRNA-23∼27∼24 clusters

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that miRNAs encoded by the miR-23∼27∼24 gene clusters are enriched in endothelial cells and highly vascularized tissues, which may have important therapeutic implications in neovascular age-related macular degeneration and other vascular disorders.
