Angiogenic cell therapy for severe ischemic diseases.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cell therapies for severe ischemic diseases such as limb ischemia, acute myocardial infarction, and cerebral ischemia have been developed through in vitro and in vivo animal and clinical studies. Active cells for angiogenic cell therapy are believed endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). EPCs have been extensively investigated to clarify their origin and biology. Many sources of EPCs have been proposed, including mononuclear cells (MNCs) fraction containing CD34(+) or CD133(+) (AC133(+)), isolated CD34(+) and AC133(+) cells, and induction and differentiation of EPCs from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). However, in vivo mechanisms by which EPCs contribute to neovascularization should be clarified. Many in vitro, in vivo, and clinical studies have been performed using these cells; angiogenic cell therapy will become an important regimen for severe ischemic diseases.

Effect of Propranolol on Angiogenic Factors in Human Hematopoietic Cell Lines in vitro
Background: Beta-adrenergic blocking agents have been broadly used for treatment of many cardiovascular diseases such as arterial hypertension and ischemic heart failure. Anti-tumoral, anti-inflammatory and anti-angiogenesis effects of propranolol (a non-selective beta-adrenergic blocker) have been shown. Angiogenesis (replenish of the pre-existing vascular networks) plays a critical role in s...

The incidence of severe ischemic heart disease caused by coronary obstruction has progressively increased. Alternative forms of treatment have been studied in an attempt to regenerate myocardial tissue, induce angiogenesis, and improve clinical conditions. In this context, cell therapy has emerged as a promising alternative using cells with regenerative potential, focusing on the release of par...
متن کاملNanoscale strategies: treatment for peripheral vascular disease and critical limb ischemia.
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is one of the most prevalent vascular diseases in the U.S. afflicting an estimated 8 million people. Obstruction of peripheral arteries leads to insufficient nutrients and oxygen supply to extremities, which, if not treated properly, can potentially give rise to a severe condition called critical limb ischemia (CLI). CLI is associated with extremely high morbid...
متن کاملAdipose tissue-derived stromal cells as a novel option for regenerative cell therapy.
Adult stem cells hold great promise for use in tissue repair and regeneration, and the delivery of autologous progenitor cells into ischemic tissue is emerging as a novel therapeutic option. We and others have recently demonstrated the potential impact of adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ADSC) on regenerative cell therapy for ischemic diseases. The main benefit of ADSC is that they can be ...

The discovery of bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitors in the peripheral blood has promoted intensive studies on the potential of cell therapy for various human diseases. Accumulating evidence has suggested that implantation of bone marrow mononuclear cells effectively promotes neovascularization in ischemic tissues. It has also been reported that the implanted cells are incorporated not ...
