Re-endothelialization of VEGF-transfected endothelial progenitor cells in rat artery intimal injury model
Objective To explore the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) after the transfection of human VEGF165
and investigate the re-endothelialization of the transfected cells in artery intimal injury rats. Methods After isolated from rat bone marrow
EPCs were cultured and then identified by FITC-UEA-I and Dil-acLDL. EPCs cells were transfected with pcDNA3-hVEGF165 or pcDNA3 by DOTAP Liposome. After transfection
the expression of VEGF was detected by using ELISA.The EPCs proliferation was studied by MTT methods. VEGF-transfected EPCs were transplanted into experimental artery intimal injury rats and its effect on injured vascular re-endothelial was studied. Results Cells expressed double FITC-UEA-I and Dil-acLDL fluorescence were confirmed to EPCs. The medium of EPCs transfected with pcDNA3-hVEGF165 had expression of VEGF. VEGF165 gene transfer stimulated EPCs adhesion
migration and proliferation. Gene-modified EPCs transplanted into rats
survived in intimal vascular injury site
repaired intimal vascular injury better than those in normal EPCs group. Conclusion VEGF165 gene is successfully transfected into EPCs
which can stimulate EPCs’ migration
adherence and proliferation. VEGF-transfected EPCs have stronger intimal repair ability compared with non-transfected EPCs. VEGF-transfected EPCs repair injured vascular intima
