Abstract

Peripheral blood (PB)-derived CD14 + monocytes were shown to transdifferentiate into endothelial cell (EC) lineage cells and contribute to neovascularization. We investigated whether bone marrow (BM)- or PB-derived CD34 − /CD14 + cells are involved in reendothelialization after carotid balloon injury. Although neither hematopoietic nor mesenchymal stem cells were included in human BM-derived CD34 − /CD14 + monocyte lineage cells (BM-MLCs), they expressed EC-specific markers (Tie2, CD31, VE-cadherin, and endoglin) to an extent identical to mature ECs. When BM-MLCs were cultured with vascular endothelial growth factors, hematopoietic markers were drastically decreased and new EC-specific markers (Flk and CD34) were induced. BM-MLCs were intra-arterially transplanted into balloon-injured arteries of athymic nude rats. When BM-MLCs were activated by monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in vivo or in vitro, they adhered onto injured endothelium, differentiated into EC-like cells by losing hematopoietic markers, and inhibited neointimal hyperplasia. Ability to prevent neointimal hyperplasia was more efficient than that of BM-derived CD34 + cells. MCP-dependent adhesion was not observed in PB-derived CD34 − /CD14 + monocytes. Regenerated endothelium exhibited a cobblestone appearance, blocked extravasation of dye, and induced NO-dependent vasorelaxation. Basal adhesive activities on HUVECs under laminar flow and β 1 -integrin expression (basal and active forms) were significantly increased in BM-MLCs compared with PB-derived monocytes. MCP-1 markedly enhanced adhesive activity of BM-MLCs (2.8-fold) on HUVECs by activating β 1 -integrin conformation. Thus, BM-MLCs can function as EC progenitors that are more potent than CD34 + cells and acquire the ability to adhere on injured endothelium in a MCP-1–dependent manner, leading to reendothelialization associated with inhibition of intimal hyperplasia. This will open a novel window to MCP-1–mediated biological actions and vascular regeneration strategies by cell therapy.

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.
