Project description:Human umbilical vein vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) are crucial for angiogenesis that benefits functional recovery after cerebral infarction. This study aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on HUVECs.
Project description:Human umbilical vein vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) are crucial for angiogenesis that benefits functional recovery after cerebral infarction. This study aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on HUVECs. HUVECs were treated with 16 ng/mL VEGF165 for 4 days

Project description:HUVECs (human umbilical cord vein endothelial cells) are treated with the angiogenic factors VEGF-A (vascular endothelial growth factor-A) and PlGF (placental growth factor) in low or high serum media.
Project description:This study investigates the influence of VEGF on the transcriptome of Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) formed to a spheroid and seeded in a 3D collagen matrix in a standard spheroid sprouting assay as one of the most commen angiogenesis assay.
Project description:IL-6 family cytokines as OSM and CNTF modify angiogenesis to different degree. This study investigates to which extend treatment of endothelial cells with those cytokines can modify VEGF induced angiogenic reactions. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were stimulated for 24h by cytokines followed by RNA harvesting and processed for RNA sequencing.
Project description:The role of STAT3 signaling induced by stimulation of IL-6 cytokine family members such as OSM and CNTF on the angiogenic response of endothelial cells is still not fully understood. To assess the impact of this pathway on angiogenesis, this study compares human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) with or without STAT3 knock-down introduced by siRNA and stimulation with VEGF, OSM+VEGF and CNTF+VEGF in the presence of the CNTF receptor (CNTFR).
Project description:We quantified differential microRNA (miRNA) expression in Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)response to Angiogenin (ANG) treatment.These data were used to determine which miRNAs are altered on ANG in Human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
Project description:The transcription factor MEF2C is specifically induced by VEGF in endothelial cells. To delineate target genes of MEF2C in endothelial cells, which might be important during angiogenesis also, MEF2C was overexpressed adenovirally in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) over a period of 8 to 32 hours. Expression data should be compared to control infected cells, to discriminate against virally induced genes, and should be further compared to HUVECs infected with an adenovirus encoding for a dominant-negative form of MEF2.
Project description:To investigate machanism of miR-210-3p regulating angiogenic ability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in hypoxic conditions, we transfected miR-210-3p mimic to overexpress miR-210-3p in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. We than performed RNA sequencing of miR-210-3p mimic-transfected and control HUVECs under hypoxic conditions to evaluate the transcriptional changes in the miR-210-3p-overexpressing HUVECs.
