Abstract

Hypoxia is the principal factor that causes angiogenesis. These experiments were conducted to explore how it induces the proliferation of vascular cells, a key step in angiogenesis. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells and bovine retinal pericytes were grown in controlled atmosphere culture chambers containing various concentrations of oxygen. The numbers of both endothelial cells and pericytes increased significantly under hypoxic conditions; the O2 concentrations that achieved maximal growth promotion were 10% for endothelial cells and 2.5% for pericytes. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that mRNAs coding for the secretory forms of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a mitogen specific to endothelial cells, were present in both endothelial cells and pericytes and that their levels increased significantly in the two cell types as the atmospheric O2 concentration decreased. The two genes for VEGF receptors, kinase insert domain-containing receptor (kdr) and fms-like tyrosine kinase 1 (flt1), were found to be constitutively expressed in endothelial cells, and their relative mRNA levels were ranked in that order. On the other hand, only flt1 mRNA was detected in pericytes under hypoxic conditions. Furthermore, most antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotides complementary to VEGF mRNAs efficiently inhibited DNA synthesis in endothelial cells cultured under hypoxic conditions. These results indicate that autocrine and paracrine VEGFs may take part in the hypoxia-induced proliferation of endothelial cells.

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.
