Abstract

The mechanisms of proangiogenic activity of multipotent stromal cells from human umbilical cord were analyzed in vitro. The absence of secreted forms of proangiogenic growth factor VEGF-A in the culture medium conditioned by umbilical cord-derived multipotent stromal cells was shown by ELISA. However, the possibility of paracrine stimulation of cell proliferation, mobility, and directed migration of endothelial EA.hy926 cells was demonstrated by using MTT test, Transwell system, and monolayer wound modeling. The capacity of multipotent stromal cells to acquire the phenotype of endothelium-like cells was analyzed using differentiation media of three types. It was found that VEGF-A is an essential but not sufficient inductor of differentiation of umbilical cord-derived multipotent stromal cells into CD31+ cells.
