Figure Lengend Snippet: Mouse aortic outgrowth assays were performed and quantified by computer-based morphometric analyses as described in Materials and Methods. Panels A–F show 8 day outgrowths from cultures grown in the presence of EBM with the following additions: A, none (control); B. 40 ng/ml FGF2; C, 40 ng/ml VEGF-165; D, 40 μg/ml HIP/RPL29; E, 40 ng/ml FGF2 plus 40 μg/ml HIP/RPL29; F, 40 ng/ml VEGF-165 plus 40 μg/ml HIP/RPL29. Panel G shows the quantitation of results of these types of assays and demonstrates near complete inhibition of outgrowth in the presence of HIP/RPL29 in all cases. * p < 0.001 vs. corresponding growth factor treatment in the absence of HIP/RPL29.
Article Snippet: After washing three times with 0.05% (v/v) Tween 20 in PBS, the bound FGF2 and VEGF-165 were identified with 2 μg/ml biotinylated anti-recombinant human FGF2 antibody (R&D Systems, BAM-233) and 3 μg/ml biotinylated anti-recombinant human VEGF antibody (R&D Systems, BAF-293), respectively.
