[HTML][HTML] Expression and secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor-A by cytokine-stimulated hematopoietic progenitor cells: possible role in the hematopoietic …
F Bautz, S Rafii, L Kanz, R Möhle - Experimental hematology, 2000 - Elsevier
OBJECTIVE: In the hematopoietic microenvironment, bone marrow endothelial cells may
play an important role in trafficking and maintenance of progenitor and stem cells due to
adhesive interactions and paracrine secretion of hematopoietic growth factors. However, it is
unknown whether progenitors in turn modulate endothelial proliferation and function.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed mRNA expression (Northern blot) and release
of vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), which specifically acts on endothelial …
