Decreased expressions of thrombospondin 2 in cyclosporin A‐induced gingival overgrowth

Abstract

These results indicate that the decrease in angiostatic TSP2 expression may be attributed to the CsA-induced gingival vascularization rather than to the increased expression of angiogenic genes. It suggests that TSP2 is involved in the development of CsA-induced gingival overgrowth with the gingival vascularization.
