Circulating endothelial progenitor cells are involved in VEGFR-2-related endothelial differentiation in glioma.
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play important roles in maintaining endothelial integrity and tumor vascularization. However, the differentiation of EPCs in the neoangiogenesis of gliomas has not yet been fully elucidated. The purpose in this study was to investigate the profile of EPC differentiation in rat C6 glioma using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), a non-invasive monitoring assay. ...
متن کاملGlioma cells enhance endothelial progenitor cell angiogenesis via VEGFR-2, not VEGFR-1.
Although potential contribution of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) to angiogenesis in glioma has been proposed, the molecular mechanisms of EPCs recruitment to vasculature have not been fully elucidated. Here, we show that the supernatant from glioma cells promotes EPCs angiogenesis via VEGFR-2, not VEGFR-1. Moreover, VEGFR-2 siRNA inhibits VEGFR-2 expression in EPCs, tube formation on matr...
متن کاملReceptor for advanced glycation end products involved in circulating endothelial cells release from human coronary endothelial cells induced by C-reactive protein
Objective(s): This study was designed to investigate the effect of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), S100A12 and C-reactive protein (CRP) on the release of circulating endothelial cells (CECs) from human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs). Materials and Methods: HCAECs were cultured in increasing concentration of CRP (0, 12.5, 25, 50μg/ml) or S100A12 protein (0, 4, 1...
متن کاملCirculating haemopoietic and endothelial progenitor cells are decreased in COPD.
Circulating CD34+ cells are haemopoietic progenitors that may play a role in tissue repair. No data are available on circulating progenitors in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Circulating CD34+ cells were studied in 18 patients with moderate-to-severe COPD (age: mean+/-sd 68+/-8 yrs; forced expiratory volume in one second: 48+/-12% predicted) and 12 controls, at rest and after end...
متن کاملDextran induces differentiation of circulating endothelial progenitor cells
Abstract Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have been demonstrated to be effective for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, the differentiation process from circulation to adhesion has not been clarified because circulating EPCs rarely attached to dishes in EPC cultures previously. Here we investigated whether immature circulating EPCs differentiate into mature adhesive EPCs in r...
