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 کاملPatterns of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression in Hematopoietic Malignant Cells
Background and Objective: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a cytokine which is overexpressed in many malignant cancers including leukemia. VEGF plays an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis. Determination of the pattern of VEGF expression in human leukemic cell lines could be useful not only in screening of new antileukemic agents but also to study the mechanism of their ...

متن کاملTransforming Growth Factor 1 Stimulates Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Gene Transcription in Human Cholangiocellular Carcinoma Cells
The expression pattern and functional interaction of proangiogenic factors in human cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCC) have not been fully defined. We therefore investigated the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and transforming growth factor (TGF)1 as well as their respective receptors in human CCC tumor samples and further analyzed their functional interaction in vitro. E...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor-β1 modulates the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor by osteoblasts.
Angiogenesis is essential to both normal and pathological bone physiology. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been implicated in angiogenesis, whereas transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) modulates bone differentiation, matrix formation, and cytokine expression. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between TGF-β1 and VEGF expression in osteoblasts and osteo...
