Background: Adaptive neovascularization after arterial occlusion is an important compensatory mechanism in cardiovascular disease and includes both the remodeling of pre-existing vessels to collateral arteries (arteriogenesis) and angiogenic capillary growth. We now aimed to identify regulatory microRNAs involved in the modulation of neovascularization after femoral artery occlusion in mice.

Methods And Results: Using microRNA-transcriptome analysis, we identified miR-155 as a downregulated microRNA during hindlimb ischemia.
