Popis: | Fetal bovine aortic endothelial cells (FBAEC) were exposed to purified fractions of conditioned medium from cultures of hair dermal papilla cells (DPC) to determine the existence of any vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-like paracrine activity of the latter. Such fractions were tested for stimulation of growth and migration of cultured FBAEC. In addition, VEGF secretion by DPC was measured by radioassay of VEGF receptors using FBAEC as target cells. The results showed that stimulation of FBAEC proliferation and migration following exposure to purified conditioned medium was dose-dependent. Radioreceptor assays of recombinant VEGF and purified DPC-conditioned medium showed competitive VEGF binding in FBAEC. |
