A central role for nicotinic cholinergic regulation of growth factor-induced endothelial cell migration.
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 2007; (1): 106-12
An endothelial nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) participates in atherogenesis and tumorigenesis by promoting neovascularization. To date, the mechanisms of nAChR-mediated angiogenesis and their relationship to angiogenic factors, eg, VEGF and bFGF, are unknown.
