High proliferative potential endothelial colony-forming cells contribute to hypoxia-induced pulmonary artery vasa vasorum neovascularization.

Angiogenic expansion of the vasa vasorum (VV) is an important contributor to pulmonary vascular remodeling in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (PH). High proliferative potential endothelial progenitor-like cells have been described in vascular remodeling and angiogenesis in both systemic and pulmonary circulations. However, their role in hypoxia-induced pulmonary artery (PA) VV expans...

Cytosine arabinoside reduces the numbers of granulocyte macrophage colony forming cells (GM-CFC) and high proliferative potential colony forming cells (HPP-CFC) in vivo in mice.

BACKGROUND Cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) is an S-phase specific cytotoxic drug used in the treatment of malignancies. It is converted to Cytosine Arabinoside triphosphate (Ara-CTP) in the cell. Cytosine Arabinoside triphosphate, reversibly displaces deoxy cytidine triphosphate from DNA polymerase for incorporation into DNA. This process leads to cell death. OBJECTIVE To investigate the in vivo...

Colony Forming Unit Endothelial Cells Do not Exhibit Telomerase Alternative Splicing Variants and Activity

Introduction: Endothelial progenitor colony forming unit-endothelial cells (CFU-EC) were first believed to be the progenitors of endothelial cells, named endothelial progenitor cells. Further studies revealed that they are monocytes regulating vasculogenesis. The main hindrance of these cells for therapeutic purposes is their low frequency and limited replicative potentials. This study was unde...

Enrichment of outgrowth endothelial cells in high and low colony-forming cultures from peripheral blood progenitors.

An effective isolation protocol for outgrowth endothelial cells (OEC) resulting in higher cell numbers and a reduced expansion time would facilitate the therapeutical application. In this study a standard protocol based on the isolation of mononuclear cells from adult peripheral blood was modified by adding a passaging step 7 days after the isolation. OEC colonies gained by both protocols were ...

Mobilization of putative high-proliferative-potential endothelial colony-forming cells during antihypertensive treatment in patients with essential hypertension.

Recent studies have shown that in response to vascular damage or ischemia, bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are recruited into the circulation. To investigate whether antihypertensive treatment has an influence on the number of circulating EPCs, patients with essential hypertension were treated either with the angiotensin receptor antagonist telmisartan, the calcium chann...
