Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate methods that improve adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) population
in decellularized biological venous scaffold for tissue engineering in blood
vessels, a model in rabbits. Methods: The ASC was expanded until the third passage. Inferior vena cava (IVC) was
submitted to the decellularization process using 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate
(SDS) or 2% sodium deoxycholate (SD) to compose 12 study groups (G): pure SD
or SDS, exposed or not to 1% TritonX-100 (TX-100) and exposed or not to
poly-l’lysine and laminin (PL). Scaffolds were covered with 1 ×
105 or 1 × 106 ASCs diluted in 10 μL Puramatrix™.
The histological analysis was done by cell counting in hematoxylin and eosin
(HE) and nuclei count in immunofluorescence (IF) with
4’,6-Diamidine-2’-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI). Results: The study of groups in HE and IF showed similar results. For both
analyses,IVC-SD-1 × 106 ASC and IVC-SD-PL-1 × 106 ASC
provided the best results. The IF technique showed better sensitivity than
HE, with a weak agreement between them. Conclusions: Decellularizing agent and the number of ASC influence scaffolds
cellularization response and the best protocols as those ones using SD with
or without the addition of PL.

Abstract
No currently available treatment is able to generate new contractile tissue or significantly improve cardiac function after myocardial infarction (MI), a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although gene transfer-enhanced endothelial progenitor cells (GTE-EPCs) show effectiveness in MI treatment in small animal models, no clinical trials using GTE-EPCs have been documented. Before the introduction of GTE-EPCs into human trials, gene-transfer-mediated augmentation of EPC function in animal models that reflect the human MI scenario should be tested. In this regard, a porcine model is the best choice since pigs have cardiac size, hemodynamics and coronary anatomy similar to that of humans. To examine GTE-EPC therapeutic efficacy in pig MI models, an efficient method for gene transfer into pig EPCs is required, which however, has been poorly documented. Pig bone marrow mononuclear cells were isolated and cultured in EGM-2 medium to obtain bone marrow-derived EPCs (BM-EPCs) that were characterized by immunostaining and the tube formation assay. Gene transfer was optimized in 6-well plates using a GFP and a VEGF plasmid, and scaled up in T75 flasks. Gene transfer efficiency was determined by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. VEGF levels were measured by ELISA. Cell proliferation was assayed by the CCK-8 kit. (1) BM-EPCs expressed VEGFR2 and eNOS but not CD45 protein, and formed tube structures on Matrigel; (2) several chemical compounds were explored with the highest transfection efficiency of 41.4% ± 5.8% achieved using Lipofectamine 3000; (3) the VEGF level in culture medium after VEGF transfection was 378 ± 48 ng/106 cells; and (4) BM-EPCs overexpressing VEGF had significantly enhanced proliferation than GFP-transfected EPCs. A simple, easy and cheap method that can be applied to produce a large number of genetically-modified BM-EPCs was established, which will facilitate the study of GTE-EPC therapeutic efficacy in pig MI model.

Bone marrow derived endothelial progenitor cells retain their phenotype and functions after a limited number of culture passages and cryopreservation. Cytotechnology 2018; 71:1-14.

Abstract
A critical limitation for tissue engineering and autologous therapeutic applications of bone marrow derived EPCs is their low frequency, which is even lower in number and activity level in patients with cardiovascular risk factors and other diseases. New strategies for obtaining and reserving sufficient ready-to-use EPCs for clinical use have hit major obstacles, because effects of serial passage and cryopreservation on EPC phenotype and functions are still needed to be explored. The present study aims at investigating effects of a limited number of culture passages as well as cryopreservation on EPC phenotype and functions. We isolated EPCs from rat bone marrow and cultured them up to passage 12 (totaling achievements of 40 population doublings). The phenotype and functions of fresh cultured and post-cryopreserved EPCs at passages 7 and 12, respectively, were evaluated. EPCs at passage 12 maintained the morphological characteristics, marker phenotype, Dil-ac-LDL uptake and FITC-UEA-1 binding functions, enhanced EPCs proliferation, tube formation and migration, but decreased CD133 expression compared with EPCs at passage 7. Cryopreservation caused limited impairment in EPC phenotype and functions. In brief, our results demonstrated that a limited number of culture passages and cryopreservation did not change EPC phenotype and functions, and can be used for the development of robust strategies and quality control criterion for obtaining sufficient and high-quality ready-to-use EPCs for tissue engineering and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Proangiogenic cell therapy using autologous progenitors is a promising strategy for treating ischemic disease. Considering that neovascularization is a harmonized cellular process that involves both endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells, peripheral blood-originating endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) and smooth muscle progenitor cells (SMPCs), which are similar to mature endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells, could be attractive cellular candidates to achieve therapeutic neovascularization. We successfully induced populations of two different vascular progenitor cells (ECFCs and SMPCs) from adult peripheral blood. Both progenitor cell types expressed endothelial-specific or smooth muscle-specific genes and markers, respectively. In a protein array focused on angiogenic cytokines, SMPCs demonstrated significantly higher expression of bFGF, EGF, TIMP2, ENA78, and TIMP1 compared to ECFCs. Conditioned medium from SMPCs and co-culture with SMPCs revealed that SMPCs promoted cell proliferation, migration, and the in vitro angiogenesis of ECFCs. Finally, co-transplantation of ECFCs and SMPCs induced robust in vivo neovascularization, as well as improved blood perfusion and tissue repair, in a mouse ischemic hindlimb model. Taken together, we have provided the first evidence of a cell therapy strategy for therapeutic neovascularization using two different types of autologous progenitors (ECFCs and SMPCs) derived from adult peripheral blood.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study was conducted to compare phenotypes and in vitro angiogenic capacity of putative endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) derived from bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB), from an avian species. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mononuclear cells were isolated from chicken BM and PB (BMMNCs and PBMNCs) and cultured in EGM-2 medium. Cells at days 7-14 were used for the experiments. Expression of progenitor and endothelial markers, number of Dil-ac-LDL/lectin dual-positive cells and adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation were determined. Migration and in vitro angiogenic ability between BMMNC- and PBMNC-derived cells were compared. RESULTS PBMNCs developed typical EPC appearance, with initial spindle shape followed by a cobblestone form, whereas BMMNC-derived cells retained their constitutive spindle-like morphology throughout the study. Cells derived from both sources expressed CD133, CD31 and VEGFR-2, although PBMNCs-derived cells had lower CD133 expression. Nevertheless, number of Dil-ac-LDL/lectin dual-positive cells did not differ between groups. Adipogenic and osteogenic lineages were verified in BMMNC- but not in PBMNC-derived cells. PBMNC-derived cells formed tubular networks on Matrigel. However, BMMNC-derived cells formed few tube-like structures, which were not morphologically comparable to those developed by their counterparts. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that so called EPCs derived from BMMNCs are not 'true' EPCs, supporting previous findings on mammals that BM may not serve as an optimal isolation source of EPCs.

Abstract
Ex vivo expansion of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) may be a promising strategy to overcome the clinical problem of limited cell numbers. As the culture medium is the key for the cell characteristics, the effects of different culture media on EPCs were investigated in the present study. Rat bone marrow mononuclear cells were cultured in different media, including M-199 media with 20% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and bovine pituitary extract (M1); M-199 media with 10% FBS, 20 ng/ml vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and 10 ng/ml basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF; M2) or epidermal growth medium (EGM)-2MV media. The cell morphology and biological functions, such as proliferation, adhesion, migration, tube formation and nitric oxide (NO) production were subsequently assayed in vitro. Moreover, endothelial biomarkers and apoptosis were also analyzed. The results showed that endothelial‑like cells appeared in all of the culture systems. First‑passage cells, namely early EPCs, tended to form colonies in M2 and EGM-2MV media but showed a fusiform shape in M1 media. The 3rd or 4th generation EPCs, namely late EPCs, cultured in EGM-2MV media exhibited increased adhesion, migration, tube formation and NO production as compared with EPCs in M1 or M2 media. Furthermore, late EPCs cultured in EGM-2MV expressed higher levels of endothelial cell markers, such as von Willibrand factor (vWF)and CD31, but relatively greater levels of apoptosis were observed. In conclusion, cell culture conditions, for example the medium used, affects the biological properties of bone marrow-derived early and late EPCs.

Abstract
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the causative agent of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS) in swine. Although the incidences of PCV2-related diseases are ubiquitous throughout the world, the serological tools are rather limited, mainly because the virus does not induce any cytopathic effects in cells. The purpose of this study was to develop a rapid, sensitive and easy quantitative immunofluorescence assay (QIFA) using the recombinant PCV2 nucleocapsid protein (NCP) for the detection of PCV2-specific antibodies in pig sera. The recombinant PCV2 NCP was expressed in Vero cells by a lentivirus system. The performance of QIFA using these Vero cells as a diagnostic antigen was compared with currently available C-ELISA and I-ELISA; the relative sensitivity turned out to range from 92.5% up to 99.3%. The relative specificity was 93.3% when compared to C-ELISA as the gold standard. The serological experiment also indicated the inverse relationship between QIFA and the viral load in serum, semen, feces samples from 7 PCV2-positive boars. In addition, the PCV2 sequence detected from bone marrow cells shows 99% of sequence identity with PCV2 genome, confirming the infectivity of PCV2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It was observed that the number and function of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) decreased sharply in the progression of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and it may be the main pathogenesis for MODS. We aim to perform autologous transplantation of EPCs on animal models of MODS to investigate whether EPCs might be used to prevent MODS caused by severe sepsis. METHODS A total of 60 pigs were randomly divided into three groups: subjected to hemorrhagic shock + resuscitation + endotoxemia only (MODS group); performed autologous transplantation of EPCs after hemorrhagic shock + resuscitation + endotoxemia (transplantation group); and control group. Mononuclear cells of animals of the transplantation group were isolated by density-gradient centrifugation for ex vivo expansion, and the six-passage EPCs labeled with 5-carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester were autologously transplanted at a density of 1 × 10(7) cells/kg body weight at the 24th hour after endotoxemia. The function of important organs was monitored continuously to assess the effects of autologous transplantation of EPCs on MODS. RESULTS All animals of the MODS group developed MODS (100%), and 17 (85%) of 20 animals died because of MODS; the incidence of MODS and mortality rate in the transplantation group were 45% (9 of 20 pigs; p < 0.01) and 35% (7 of 20 pigs; p < 0.01). In transplantation group, the incidence of pulmonary dysfunction, cardiac dysfunction, hepatosis, and renal dysfunction were 40%, 10%, 5%, and 15%, respectively. The capillary densities of important organs, including the heart, liver, kidney, intestine, and lung, after autologous transplantation of EPCs were significantly higher than those in the MODS group (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Autologous transplantation of EPCs could migrate to injured organs and induce angiogenesis to restore blood flow that could improve the function of important organs. It could prevent the incidence of MODS and reduce mortality rate caused by trauma and severe sepsis. Autologous transplantation of EPCs would be a novel, cell-based, vascular endothelium-targeted therapeutic strategy for MODS.

Abstract
Hemodynamic pulmonary arterial hypertension (HPAH) is a common symptom in congenital heart disease (CHD) patients with a left-to-right shunt. Endothelial NO synthase (eNOS) and endothelial-like progenitor cells result in significant improvement of right ventricular systolic pressure in established pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) models. We hypothesized that bone marrow (BM)-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and eNOS would prevent HPAH in a newly established rat model. The heNOS gene was cloned into a PSUCMV vector, and a high-titer adenovirus was generated. Mononuclear cells (MNCs) from rat BM were differentiated into EPCs by treatment with various cytokines, and a high purity of EPCs (>70%) was confirmed using the markers DiI ac-LDL, UEA-1, vWF and Flk-1. An ideal rat HPAH model was successfully established based on right lung lobectomy, and was confirmed by pressure measurement and histological staining. heNOS was successfully transfected into EPCs, which were then transplanted into HPAH rats. Two weeks after transplantation, the systolic pulmonary arterial blood pressure (sPAP) was significantly reduced by heNOS-EPCs treatment and by transplantation of control EPCs. The high number of muscular pulmonary arteries and the thickness of the muscular coat characteristic of HPAH rats were clearly reversed or even restored to normal levels following transplantation of EPCs, particularly eNOS-EPCs. These findings indicate a critical role of eNOS in HPAH treatment and suggest that eNOS-transfected EPCs may provide an effective strategy for HPAH treatment in CHD patients.

Abstract
Pancreatic β-cells sense and adjust the blood glucose level by secretion of insulin. In Type 1 diabetes mellitus, these insulin-producing cells are destroyed, leaving the patients incapable of regulating blood glucose homeostasis. At the time of diagnosis, most patients still have 20–30% of their original β-cell mass remaining. These residual β-cells are targets for intervention therapies aimed at preventing further autoimmune destruction, in addition to increasing the number of existing β-cells. Such a therapeutic option is highly desirable since it may lead to a full recovery of newly diagnosed patients, with no need for further treatment with immunosuppressant drugs or exogenous insulin administration. In this article, we propose that endothelial progenitor cells, a cell type known to promote and support neovascularization following endothelial injury, may be used as part of a combinational stem cell therapy aimed to improve the vascularization, survival and proliferation of β-cells.
