Anatomic Closure of the Premature Patent Ductus Arteriosus: The Role of CD14+/CD163+ Mononuclear Cells and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) in Neointimal Mound Formation

Permanent closure of the newborn ductus arteriosus requires the development of neointimal mounds to completely occlude its lumen. Vascular endothelial growth factor is required for neointimal mound formation. The size of the neointimal mounds (composed of proliferating endothelial and migrating smoo...
