Popis: | Objective— To accelerate vein graft reendothelialization and reduce vein graft thrombosis by infusing human umbilical cord blood–derived endothelial cells (hCB-ECs) because loss of endothelium contributes to vein graft thrombosis and neointimal hyperplasia. Methods and Results— Under steady flow conditions in vitro, hCB-ECs adhered to smooth muscle cells 2.5 to 13 times more than ECs derived from peripheral blood or human aorta ( P 5 β 1 integrin heterodimers per cell ( P P scid /J mice. Two weeks postoperatively, vein grafts from hCB-EC–treated mice demonstrated approximately 55% reendothelialization and no luminal thrombosis. In contrast, vein grafts from sham-treated mice demonstrated luminal thrombosis in 75% of specimens ( P Conclusion— The hCB-ECs adhere to smooth muscle cells under flow conditions in vitro, accelerate vein graft reendothelialization in vivo, and prevent vein graft thrombosis. Thus, hCB-ECs offer novel therapeutic possibilities for vein graft disease. |
