概要:
Background: During sprouting angiogenesis, stalk cells, localized behind tip cells, generate endothelial cells (ECs) for

the elongation of new vessels. We hypothesized that stalk cells may have endothelial progenitor cell properties because of their highly proliferative ability. We conducted Hoechst dye DNA staining in ECs of preexisting blood vessels from hind limb muscle and found that endothelial-side population (E-SP) cells, which efflux Hoechst rapidly with abundant ABC transporters, show highly producing ability of ECs. We previously showed the existence of E-SP cells in hind limb muscle, retina, and liver, but not in other tissues such as adipose tissue, skin, and placenta. Methods: We investigated the existence of E-SP cells and analyzed their proliferative ability among CD31+CD45- ECs from adipose tissue, skin, and placenta of adult mice. We also analyzed the neovascular formation of E-SP cells from adipose tissue in vivo. Results: We detected E-SP cells in all tissues examined. However, by in vitro colony formation analysis on OP9 cells, we found that E-SP cells from adipose tissue and skin, but not from placenta, have highly proliferative ability. Moreover, E-SP cells from adipose tissue could contribute to the neovascular formation in hind limb ischemia model. Conclusion: The adipose tissue and skin are available sources to obtain endothelial stem cells for conducting therapeutic angiogenesis in regenerative medicine. © 2019 The Author(s).

概要:
Purpose. The neovascular form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is characterized by the growth of abnormal new b

lood vessels from the choroid, termed choroidal neovascularization (CNV). The origin of the new vessels in CNV, however, has not been elucidated fully to our knowledge. The purpose of this study is to identify vascular endothelial side population (SP) cells in the preexisting choroidal vessels, and investigate their potential role in AMD. Methods. We made single cell suspensions of freshly isolated mouse choroidal, retinal, and brain tissue by enzymatic digestion. Vascular endothelial SP cells were isolated using flow cytometry based on the ability to efflux the DNA-binding dye, Hoechst 33342, via ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. Results. In the choroid, 2.8% of CD31+CD45- vascular endothelial cells (ECs) showed a typical SP staining pattern. They were not bone marrow-derived and possessed high colony-forming capacity in vitro. They proliferated during laser-induced CNV in vivo. In contrast, stereotypic SP staining pattern was not observed in retinal and brain ECs. Retinal and brain EC-SP cells included increased SP populations with less colony-forming capacity within the SP compartment, because they contained cells with and without proliferative potential. The latter still could efflux the dye due to high levels of ABC transporters, such as ABCB1a, ABCC4, and ABCC6. Conclusions. The EC-SP cells in the choroid may represent vessel-residing endothelial stem/progenitor cells contributing mainly to angiogenesis, and may be useful for augmenting vascular regeneration or for developing new antiangiogenic therapy in AMD. © 2013 The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, Inc.
