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 کاملLymphatic endothelial cells support tumor growth in breast cancer
Tumor lymphatic vessels (LV) serve as a conduit of tumor cell dissemination, due to their leaky nature and secretion of tumor-recruiting factors. Though lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) lining the LV express distinct factors (also called lymphangiocrine factors), these factors and their roles in the tumor microenvironment are not well understood. Here we employ LEC, microvascular endothelial c...
متن کاملEndothelial precursor cells as a model of tumor endothelium: characterization and comparison with mature endothelial cells.
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC) have been the standards for cell-based assays in the field of angiogenesis research and in antiangiogenic drug discovery. These normal mature endothelial cells may not be most representative of human tumor endothelial cells. Human AC133+/CD34+ bone marrow progenitor cells were established in cell cu...
متن کاملEndothelial Progenitor Cells in Breast Cancer.
Recent evidences demonstrated the importance of bone marrow derived Endothelial Progenitor Cells (EPC), in the contribution to postnatal physiological and pathological neovascularization, and in tumor growth and angiogenesis. These cells are recruited undifferentiated, in response to systemic or chemoatractive signals, such as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), they lodge in the growing...
متن کاملComparative Study of Anti-Cancer Properties of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Different Cultivars of Apricot Kernels on Breast Cancer Cells (MCF7) and Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells
Background and purpose: Breast cancer mortality is growing around the world due to chemotherapy resistance and chemo-related side effects. Many natural products from plants are recognized to exert anticancer activity. This study aimed at investigating anti-proliferative and apoptotic activity of hydro-alcoholic extract of different varieties of apricot kernels (Jahangiri, Palmia, Jafari, and N5...
