Transdifferentiation of cancer stem cells into endothelial cells [PDF]
Open Life Sciences, 2011 Abstract Vasculogenic mimicry was first described as the unique ability of aggressive melanoma cells to express an endothelial phenotype and to form vessel-like networks in three dimensional cultures, “mimicking” the pattern of embryonic vascular networks and recapitulating the patterned networks seen in patients with aggressive tumors ...

Stem Cells Translational Medicine, 2018 Endothelial cells (ECs) play a key role in revascularization within regenerating tissue. Stem cells are often used as an alternative cell source when ECs are not available.

PLoS ONE, 2022 Cardiomyocyte proliferation has emerged as the main source of new cardiomyocytes in the adult. Progenitor cell populations may on the other hand contribute to the renewal of other cell types, including endothelial and smooth muscle cells.

Physiological Plasticity of Neural-Crest-Derived Stem Cells in the Adult Mammalian Carotid Body [PDF]
, 2017 Adult stem cell plasticity, or the ability of somatic stem cells to cross boundaries and differentiate into unrelated cell types, has been amatter of debate in the last decade.

Endothelial cells mediate the regeneration of hematopoietic stem cells
Stem Cell Research, 2010 Recent studies suggest that endothelial cells are a critical component of the normal hematopoietic microenvironment. Therefore, we sought to determine whether primary endothelial cells have the capacity to repair damaged hematopoietic stem cells. Highly purified populations of primary CD31(+) microvascular endothelial cells isolated from the brain or ...

Stem and endothelial progenitor cells in erection biology [PDF]
International Journal of Impotence Research, 2008 Erectile dysfunction (ED) is defined as the consistent inability to obtain or maintain an erection for satisfactory sexual relations. The past 20 years of basic science research on erection physiology has been devoted to investigating the pathogenesis of ED and has led to the conclusion that ED is predominately a disease of vascular origin with ...

Evaluation of Endothelial Cells Differentiated from Amniotic Fluid-Derived Stem Cells [PDF]
, 2012 Amniotic fluid holds great promise as a stem cell source, especially in neonatal applications where autologous cells can be isolated and used. This study examined chemical-mediated differentiation of amniotic fluid-derived stem cells (AFSC) into ...

Measurement of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Attachment to Endothelial Cells
BIO-PROTOCOL, 2018 Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown profound therapeutic potential in tissue repair and regeneration. However, recent studies indicate that MSCs are largely entrapped in lungs after intravenous delivery and die shortly. The underlying mechanisms have been poorly understood. We have provided evidence to show that excess expression and activation of

Angiogenic potential of endothelial progenitor cells and embryonic stem cells [PDF]
Vascular Cell, 2011 Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are implicated in a range of pathological conditions, suggesting a natural therapeutic role for EPCs in angiogenesis. However, current angiogenic therapies involving EPC transplantation are inefficient due to rejection of donor EPCs.
