Activation of protease-activated receptor 2 induces VEGF independently of HIF-1.
<h4>Background</h4>Human adipose stem cells (hASCs) can promote angiogenesis through secretion of proangiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). In other cell types, it has been shown that induction of VEGF is mediated by both protease activated receptor 2 (PAR2...
