Low-dose ionizing radiation induces therapeutic neovascularization in a pre-clinical model of hindlimb ischemia
Cardiovascular ResearchPeer ReviewedAugusto Ministro +162017Journals
We have previously shown that low-dose ionizing radiation (LDIR) induces angiogenesis but there is no evidence that it induces neovascularization in the setting of peripheral arterial disease. Here, we investigated the use of LDIR as an innovative and non-invasive strategy to stimulate therapeutic neovascularization using a model of experimentally induced hindlimb ischemia (HLI).
