Quantitative Analysis of Factors Regulating Angiogenesis for Stem Cell Therapy

(1) Background: The control of angiogenesis is essential in disease treatment. We investigated angiogenesis-promoting or -suppressing factors and their molecular mechanisms. (2) Methods: Angiogenesis from HUVECs was quantitatively analyzed using the Angiogenesis Analysis Kit (Kurabo, Osaka, Japan)....

(2) Methods: Angiogenesis from HUVECs was quantitatively analyzed using the Angiogenesis Analysis Kit (Kurabo, Osaka, Japan).

(3) Results: The addition of rAng-1-producing cells, their culture supernatant, or commercially available rAng-1 showed a promoting effect on angiogenesis. The co-culture of DFAT-D1 cells promoted angiogenesis. Polyphenols showed a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on angiogenesis. Luteolin and quercetin showed remarkable anti-angiogenic effects. The expression of vWF, Flk1, and PECAM-1 was increased by adding rAng-1-producing cell culture supernatant. Polyphenols suppressed these genes. Apigenin and luteolin markedly suppressed α-SMA and Flk1. Resveratrol and quercetin enhanced the expression of PPARγ, and luteolin suppressed the expression of COX-1. The expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), an oxidative stress-related gene, was slightly increased by luteolin. These results suggest that polyphenols induce ROS reduction.
