Funding Research Through the Online Partnership to Accelerate Research (OnPAR)
Journal of the American College of Cardiology: Basic to Translational Science
OnPAR—the Online Partnership to Accelerate Research—seeks to provide a second opportunity for funding of high-quality, unfunded applications originally submitted to the National Institutes of Health and other national and international funding agencies. OnPAR will match applicable, unfunded applications with the research priorities of nongovernment organizations such as private biomedical foundations, pharmaceutical companies, venture capital funds, and other private funds.

OnPAR—the Online Partnership to Accelerate Research—seeks to provide a second opportunity for funding of high-quality, unfunded applications originally submitted to the National Institutes of Health and other national and international funding agencies. OnPAR will match applicable, unfunded applications with the research priorities of nongovernment organizations such as private biomedical foundations, pharmaceutical companies, venture capital funds, and other private funds. Funding organization members will review and make final funding decisions through a simple, 2-step process whereby applicants can submit public abstracts directly to OnPAR. If a member requests additional information, then, by invitation only, an applicant can submit their original unfunded application and their peer review summary statement. Advancing research discovery and drug development to improve clinical outcomes for patients afflicted with or at risk for disease is the primary goal of OnPAR. OnPAR invites the scientific community to fully participate in this new funding paradigm by submitting their National Institutes of Health public abstracts so that funding members can review and potentially support these high-quality, unfunded applications.

Therapeutic angiogenesis: a comparative study of the angiogenic potential of acidic fibroblast growth.
Journal of Vascular Surgery
Purpose: Acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) is a potent mitogen for vascular and other mesenchymal cells in vitro that can induce angiogenesis in vivo. Although heparin has no mitogenic potential of its own, it is an important aFGF cofactor in vitro and may also be capable of stimulating angiogenesis. Because the development of a collateral vasculature in response to ischemia appears to be dependent on angiogenesis, we compared the abilities of aFGF with or without heparin and heparin alone…

Because the development of a collateral vasculature in response to ischemia appears to be dependent on angiogenesis, we compared the abilities of aFGF with or without heparin and heparin alone to accelerate angiogenesis in a rat hind limb ischemia model.
