Evaluation of parathyroid gland angiogenesis in chronic kidney disease associated with secondary hyperparathyroidism
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 08/20/08

Martins P et al. - The results suggest that PTGs in this group of patients with SHPT have a significantly higher number of vessels expressing CD105, which has been reported to preferentially label activated endothelial cells associated with angiogenesis. SHPT glands have a significantly increased expression of b-FGF compared to NPG. VEGF-A expression is also increased in the examined SHPT glands but could be less relevant for angiogenesis.
