چکیده

Horizontal information transfer between cells via microparticles is a newly identified communication system. MicroRNAs regulate gene expression and are detected in microparticles. Cantaluppi et al. suggest that microparticles derived from circulating angiogenic cells--'endothelial progenitor cells' (EPCs)--harbor endothelial-protective miRNAs such as miR-126 and that delivery of EPC-derived microparticles during acute kidney ischemia-reperfusion in rats ameliorates kidney dysfunction and damage. We highlight the importance, potential future impact, and limitations of this study.

Effect of 8-week resistance training on HIF-1α gene expression and Endothelial Progenitor Cells recall of blood after one session of resistance activity in elderly men

Abstract Background and Objectives Dysfunction of endothelial cells is associated with the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Adult endothelial progenitor cells are derived from hematopoietic stem cells capable of forming new blood vessels through a process of angiogenesis. This study was to investigate the effect of resistance training on HIF-1α gene expression and rec...

Effect of Scurrula atropurpurea on nitric oxide, endothelial damage, and endothelial progenitor cells of DOCA-salt hypertensive rats

Objective(s):To know whether Scurrula atropurpurea is able to modulate total plasma nitrate/nitrite levels, decrease endothelial damage, and increase endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in hypertensive rats. Materials and Methods: The rats were divided in 5 groups: control (normotensive) group, Desoxy cortico sterone (DOCA)-salt hypertensive group, and three DOCA-salt hypertensive groups. All 5...

Chronic Exposure of Human Endothelial Progenitor Cells to Diabetic Condition Abolished the Regulated Kinetics Activity of Exosomes

By virtue of lifestyle change, incidence of type 2 diabetes is increasingly being raised with different up-surging pathologies. This condition found to disqualify endothelial progenitor cells during neo-vascularization. Besides to an aborted differentiation property, malfunctioned paracrine activities exacerbate vascular abnormalities. It is found nano-scaled exosomes play essential roles on re...

Specification of Hemato-Endothelial-Like Structures and Generation of Hematopoietic Progenitor Cells from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

 Background and purpose: Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) with the ability to differentiate into adult cells have provided a new perspective for treatment of some diseases. But, the efficiency of differentiation methods to generate hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) is faced with multiple challenges. In the present study, we investigated the formation of hemato-endothelial-like structure...
