Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Gene Therapy Using A Non-Viral Gene Delivery System Improves Erectile Dysfunction In A Diabetic Rat Model

... UroToday.com - In light of the fact that VEGF has shown to improve overall endothelial and smooth muscle cell dysfunction in models of ED and (ED) decreases the quality of life in more than 70% of diabetic men, the authors investigate the ability to achieve in in-vivo gene transfection of VEGF in the rat model. Diabetes was induced and confirmed with a single injection of streptozotocin. [click link for full article] ...
