Described is the modulation of the neovascularization and/or growth of collateral arteries and/or other arteries from preexisting arteriolar connections. Methods are provided for enhancing neovascularization and/or the growth of collateral arteries and/or other arteries from preexisting arteriolar connections comprising contacting organs, tissue or cells with a colony stimulating factor (CSF) or a nucleic acid molecule encoding said CSF. Furthermore, the use of a CSF or a nucleic acid molecule encoding said CSF for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions for enhancing neovascularization and/or collateral growth of collateral arteries and/or other arteries from preexisting arteriolar connections is described. Also provided are methods for the treatment of tumors comprising contacting an organ, tissue or cells with an agent which suppresses neovascularization and/or the growth of collateral arteries and/or other arteries from preexisting arteriolar connections through the inhibition of the biological activity of CSFs. Further described is the use of an agent which suppresses neovascularization and /or the growth of collateral arteries and/or other arteries from preexisting arteriolar connections through inhibition of the biological activity of CFSs for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of tumors.

Cette invention, qui a trait à la modulation de la néovascularisation et/ou du développement d'artères collatérales et/ou d'autres artères à partir de connexions artériolaires existantes, concerne également des procédés visant à renforcer la néovascularisation et/ou le développement d'artères collatérales et/ou d'autres artères à partir de connexions artériolaires existantes. Ces procédés consistent à mettre en contact des organes, des tissus ou des cellules avec un facteur de stimulation des colonies (FSC) ou avec une molécule d'acide nucléique codant ce FSC. L'invention porte, de surcroît, sur l'utilisation du FSC ou de la molécule d'acide nucléique le codant aux fins de la préparation de compositions pharmaceutiques capables de renforcer la néovascularisation et/ou le développement d'artères collatérales et/ou d'autres artères à partir de connexions artériolaires existantes. Il est également question de méthodes de traitement de tumeurs consistant à mettre en contact des organes, des tissus ou des cellules avec un agent faisant cesser la néovascularisation et/ou le développement d'artères collatérales et/ou d'autres artères à partir de connexions artériolaires existantes et ce, par inhibition de l'activité biologique des FSC. Cette invention porte en outre, sur l'utilisation, aux fins de la préparation de compositions pharmaceutiques de traitement de tumeurs, d'un agent faisant cesser la néovascularisation et/ou le développement d'artères collatérales et/ou d'autres artères à partir de connexions artériolaires existantes et ce, par inhibition de l'activité biologique des FSC.
