Mesenchymal Stem Cells Differentiate to Endothelial Cells Using Recombinant Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor –A
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), an endothelial cell-specific mitogen produced by various cell types, plays important roles in cell differentiation and proliferation. In this study we investigated the effect of recombinant VEGF-A on differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to endothelial cells (ECs). Methods: VEGF-A was expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3) and BL21...
متن کاملBovine Aortic Endothelial Cells
As bstract. We examined the effect of bovine aortic endothelial cell culture supernatants upon the generation of procoagulant activity by human blood monocytes. Confluent endothelial monolayers were cultured for up to 96 h. At timed intervals, culture supernatants were collected and incubated for 5 h with lipopolysaccharide-stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The procoagulant a...
متن کاملAortic Endothelial Cells
Isolated, cultured arterial endothelial cells express an acetylcholine (ACh)-activated K current in addition to an inward rectifier current whose conductance Ls unaffected by ACh. The cholinergic K current is specifically blocked by atropine (1 /xM) and shows single saturation kinetics with ACh (halfmaximal stimulation 51 nM ACh). Unlike the cardiac muscarinic receptor-gated K channel, its stim...
متن کاملRadiation-induced expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 in cerebral endothelial cells
Background: Radiation-induced molecular changes on the endothelial surface of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) may be used as markers for specific vascular targeting agents. In this study, we examined the level of expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) on brain endothelial cell surface after radiation treatment, with the aim of targeting the radiation-induc...
متن کاملMolecular characterization of taurine transport in bovine aortic endothelial cells.
Cultured bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells expressed a Na(+)/Cl(-)-dependent taurine uptake activity that saturated with an apparent K(0.5) of approximately 4.9 microM for taurine and was inhibited by beta-alanine, guanidinoethane sulfonate, and homotaurine. We isolated a taurine transporter clone from a BAE cell cDNA library that revealed >91% sequence identity at the amino acid level to t...
