Comparative in vivo antiangiogenic effects of calreticulin from Trypanosoma cruzi and Homo sapiens sapiens
Angiogenesis is a complex multi-step process of neovascularization arising from preexisting blood vessels whose generation is regulated by pro- and anti-angiogenic factors. Both Trypanosoma cruzi calreticulin (TcCRT) and its human counterpart (HuCRT) are antiangiogenic. This is the first report wher...
