| 摘要 |
The present invention encompasses compositions and compounds as well as methods of their use for the regulation of a VEGF-induced tissue response. A VEGF-induced tissue response may include angiogenesis, inflammation, increased vascular permeability, increased vascular leak, hemorrhage, or mucus metaplasia. As such, the present invention encompasses methods of treating diseases where a VEGF-induced tissue response is part of the disease's clinical presentation. Specifically, the present invention provides compounds and compositions as well as methods for treating acute lung injury (ALI), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), tuberculosis, pulmonary hypertension, pleural effusion, and lung cancer.
