Research Abstract |
Angiogenesis was induced around the implanted site of gelatin hydrogels incorporating Substance P, a member of tachykinin family neuropeptides. In addition, accumulation of granulocytes, one of the circulating cells with angiogenic activities, around the implanted sites was observed. It is conceivable that the controlled release of SP efficiently induced the recruitment and the subsequent activation of granulocytes from the blood circulation into the site implanted, resulting in enhanced angiogenesis.
