Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of bone marrow derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPC)transplantation on microenvironments in a murine model of chronic vein thrombosis.EPCs transplantation was evaluated whether it can up-regulate thrombus organization and recanalization associated cytokines(VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1). Method EPCs from immature Wister rats' bone marrow were isolated using a Ficoll density gradient centrifugation,and cultured in fibronectin-coated plate in EGM-2M Vmedium.EPCs were harvested on the 10th day,then were transplanted into chronic inferior vens cava thrombus of adult Wister rat through the femoral vein.Rats were divided into three groups:blank control group(group A,sham operation),the control group(group B,the medium injected)and the experimental group(group C,EPCs injected).The rats were sacrificed after 28 days.VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1 mRNA was measured by real-time quantitative PCR and protein expression change by Western blotting from IVC and thrombus tissue. Results EPCs were identificated successfullv by immunohistochemistry,immunofluorescence and function,then were transplanted into chronic inferior vena cava thrombus of adult rats.After EPCs transplantation,the VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1 mRNA expression in group C expression was significantly up-regulated with statistical significance(P＜0.01)compared with group A and group B in IVC and thrombus tissue by real-time PCR.There was no significant difference between group A and group B (P＞0.05).VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1 protein expression were similar to mRNA expression.There was significant increase in group C compared to group A and group B(P＜0.01)and no statistical significance between group A and group B(P＞0.05).Conclusion EPCs deriving from bone marrow may change the microenvimnment of chronic vein thrombus through up-regulating thrombus organization and recanalization associated cytokines(VEGF,ANG-1 and MCP-1).
