1.	Myocardial Infarction 05/01/2010 - "Here, we show that the prolonged intramyocardial expression of VEGF-A(165) and VEGF-B(167) on adeno-associated virus-mediated gene delivery determined a marked improvement in cardiac function after myocardial infarction in rats, by promoting cardiac contractility, preserving viable cardiac tissue, and preventing remodeling of the left ventricle (LV) over time. "
2.	Pathologic Neovascularization 09/01/2008 - "We studied the role of VEGF-B in various models of pathological angiogenesis using mice lacking VEGF-B (VEGF-B(-/-)) or overexpressing VEGF-B(167). "
3.	Infarction (Infarctions) 09/01/2008 - "After occlusion of the left coronary artery, VEGF-B deficiency impaired vessel growth in the ischemic myocardium whereas, in wild-type mice, VEGF-B(167) overexpression enhanced revascularization of the infarct and ischemic border zone. "
4.	Cardiomegaly (Heart Hypertrophy) 10/26/2010 - "As previously reported for the VEGF-B(167) isoform, transgenic mice and rats expressing both isoforms of VEGF-B in the myocardium developed cardiac hypertrophy yet maintained systolic function. "
5.	Dilated Cardiomyopathy (Cardiomyopathy, Congestive) 06/25/2010 - "We determined a novel, angiogenesis-unrelated cardioprotective effect of VEGF-B(167) in nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy, which limits apoptotic cell loss and delays the progression toward failure." 06/25/2010 - "AAV-9-carried VEGF-B(167) cDNA (10(12) genome copies) was injected into the myocardium of chronically instrumented dogs developing tachypacing-induced dilated cardiomyopathy.
