Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Vascular endothelial growth factor is a potent angiogenesis and permeability inducible factor. Vascular endothelial growth factor 165 and vascular endothelial growth factor 121 are mainly expressed in vivo, with a strong role of angiogenesis.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the feasibility of vascular endothelial growth factor 165 gene transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s to differentiate into vascular endothelial cel s.
METHODS:Bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cel s were isolated and col ected from 50 g Sprague-Dawley rats,and identified by flow cytometry. The plasmid pGLV-EF1a carrying a vascular endothelial growth factor 165 gene was transfected to the mesenchymal stem cel s using lentiviral. Expression of green fluorescent protein was observed under a fluorescence microscope.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 12 hours of transfection, expression of green fluorescent protein was observed, increased at 48 hours, peaked at 72 hours and gradual y declined thereafter. Results prove that vascular endothelial growth factor 165 gene transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s have the expression of green fluorescent protein, indicating successful transfection. It is feasible to induce bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s to differentiate into vascular endothelial cel s.
