Coculture of endothelial progenitor cells and mesenchymal stem cells enhanced their proliferation and angiogenesis through PDGF and Notch signaling
Open accessAbstract
The beneficial effects of combined use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC s) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPC s) on tissue repair and regeneration after injury have been demonstrated, but the underlying mechanism remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to investigate the effects of direct contact coculture of human bone marrow‐derived EPCs (hEPCs)/human bone marrow‐derived MSCs (hMSC s) on their proliferation and angiogenic capacities and the underlying mechanism. hEPC s and hMSC s were cocultured in a 2D mixed monolayer or a 3D transwell membrane cell‐to‐cell coculture system. Cell proliferation was determined by Cell Counting Kit‐8. Angiogenic capacity was evaluated by in vitro angiogenesis assay. Platelet‐derived growth factor‐BB (PDGF‐BB), PDGF receptor neutralizing antibody (AB‐PDGFR), and DAPT (a γ‐secretase inhibitor) were used to investigate PDGF and Notch signaling. Cell proliferation was significantly enhanced by hEPC s/hMSC s 3D‐coculture and PDGF‐BB treatment, but inhibited by AB‐PDGFR. Expression of cyclin D1, PDGFR, Notch1, and Hes1 was markedly enhanced by PDGF‐BB but inhibited by DAPT. In vitro angiogenesis assay showed that hEPC s/hMSC s coculture and PDGF‐BB significantly enhanced angiogenic capacity, whereas AB‐PDGFR significantly reduced the angiogenic capacity. PDGF‐BB increased the expression of kinase insert domain receptor (KDR, an endothelial marker) and activated Notch1 signaling in cocultured cells, while DAPT attenuated the promoting effect of PDGF‐BB on KDR expression of hEPC s/hMSC s coculture. hEPC s/hMSC s coculture enhanced their proliferation and angiogenic capacities. PDGF and Notch signaling pathways participated in the promoting effects of hEPC s/hMSC s coculture, and there was crosstalk between these two signaling pathways. Our findings should aid understanding of the mechanism of beneficial effects of hEPC s/hMSC s coculture.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
