Abstract

To clarify the direct effects of aberrant overexpression of stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) by the human endothelium on circulating progenitor cells, we overexpressed the SDF-1 gene in human umbilical vein endothelial cells using an adenoviral vector (HUVEC/AdeSDF-1) and examined the endothelium-supported trafficking and growth of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) in mobilized peripheral blood (mPB). In culture, the HUVEC/AdeSDF-1 monolayers induced the migration of mPB CD34(+) cells underneath the endothelium within a few hours, whereas HUVEC monolayers that expressed the LacZ gene (HUVEC/AdeLacZ) did not have this effect. In the Transwell system, the HUVEC/AdeSDF-1 cells supported a higher level of spontaneous transmigration of mPB CD34(+) cells than did the HUVEC/AdeLacZ cells. The co-culturing of mPB CD34(+) cells with HUVEC/ AdeSDF-1 cells led to a greater expansion of CD45(+) cells and colony-forming cells and reduced cellular apoptosis. Furthermore, the co-culturing of mPB CD34(+) cells with HUVEC/AdeSDF-1 cells led to the formation of numerous cobblestone-like areas, whereas co-cultures of mPB CD34(+) cells and HUVEC/AdeLacZ supported only a few cobblestone-like areas. These results indicate that SDF- 1 produc...Continue Reading

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Blood And Marrow Transplantation

The use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or blood and marrow transplantation (bmt) is on the increase worldwide. BMT is used to replace damaged or destroyed bone marrow with healthy bone marrow stem cells. Here is the latest research on bone and marrow transplantation.
