Abstract
This appears to be the first large-animal study in which, during progressive ischemia, functional and metabolic benefits of intramyocardial VEGF-C gene transfer were apparent. VEGF-C-induced collateral formation occurred at the site of gene transfer. The angiogenic potency of VEGF-C deserves further study as a therapeutic option.
