摘要:Ischemia induces the production of angiogenic cytokines and the homing of bone-marrow-derived angiogenic cells (BMDACs), but these adaptive responses become impaired with aging because of reduced expression of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1{alpha}. In this study, we analyzed the effect of augmenting HIF-1{alpha} levels in ischemic limb by intramuscular injection of AdCA5, an adenovirus encoding a constitutively active form of HIF-1{alpha
