| Abstract | Endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) derived from the circulation may be used to enhance neovascularization. Since the combination of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) and CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 efficiently mobilizes hematopoietic stem cells into peripheral circulation, it may increase the pool of endogenously circulating EPC. We tested this hypothesis by administering GCSF and AMD3100 to adult rabbits and rats, isolating mononuclear cells from peripheral blood by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation, and characterizing the blood-derived EPC based on morphology, immunophenotyping, gene expression and other functional analyses. These EPC showed clonal growth similar to that of human umbilical vein endothelial cells when cultured in complete EGM-2 medium on collagen I-precoated culture plates. The EPC exhibited a typical cobblestone-like morphology and were relatively homogeneous by the third passage. The cells expressed the typical endothelial marker CD31 based on flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy, formed capillary-like structures when cultured in Matrigel, internalized DiI-acetylated low-density lipoprotein, bound Ulex europaeus agglutinin-1, and expressed CD31 and several other endothelial markers (VEGFR2, VE-cadherin, Tie-2, eNOS, vWF) at significantly higher levels than bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. These results suggest that the combination of GCSF and AMD3100 can efficiently release stem cells into peripheral circulation and generate EPC that show the desired morphological, immunophenotypic and functional characteristics. This minimally invasive approach may be useful for autologous cell transplantation for postnatal neovasculogenesis and tissue repair. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
