Storage and regulated secretion of factor VIII in blood outgrowth endothelial cells.
BACKGROUND Gene therapy provides an attractive alternative for protein replacement therapy in hemophilia A patients. Recent studies have shown the potential benefit of directing factor (F)VIII gene delivery to cells that also express its natural carrier protein von Willebrand factor (VWF). In this study, we explored the feasibility of blood outgrowth endothelial cells as a cellular FVIII delive...
متن کاملOrigins of circulating endothelial cells and endothelial outgrowth from blood.
Normal adults have a small number of circulating endothelial cells (CEC) in peripheral blood, and endothelial outgrowth has been observed from cultures of blood. In this study we seek insight into the origins of CEC and endothelial outgrowth from cultures of blood. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis of blood samples from bone marrow transplant recipients who had received gender-mismatc...
متن کاملAnalysis of the storage and secretion of von Willebrand factor in blood outgrowth endothelial cells derived from patients with von Willebrand disease.
Patients with von Willebrand disease (VWD) are often heterozygous for a missense mutation in the von Willebrand factor (VWF) gene. Investigating the pathogenic features of VWF mutations in cells directly derived from patients has been challenging. Here, we have used blood outgrowth endothelial cells (BOECs) isolated from human peripheral blood to analyze the storage and secretion of VWF. BOECs ...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production is Regulated by Gene Polymorphisms
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a key role in angiogene-sis and in transplantation. The level of VEGF is related to the differences in the DNA sequence of its promoter region. Objectives: In this study, the association between the combination of VEGF –1154 G and –2578 C alleles and VEGF production by LPS-stimulated PBMCs was investigated. In addition; the relationship ...
متن کاملRegulated secretion in endothelial cells: biology and clinical implications.
Vascular endothelial cells are critical participants in maintaining blood flow, with the ability to respond rapidly to injury. We have outlined above how the regulated secretion of a variety of hemostatic and inflammatory mediators contributes to these nearly instantaneous responses. The WPB are the most prominent of these regulated secretory granules, and there is growing evidence of additiona...
