Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells

Bio-electrospraying (BES) is becoming an attractive tool for the delivery of cells into scaffolds for tissue engineering applications. In this study, we aimed to electrospray human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and improve the efficiency of BES by designing a new customized multi-hole spinneret. We demonstrated that the multi-hole spinneret could produce continuous and stable jets during BES, and the efficiency was increased by 5–7 times. Morphological observations, trypan blue and sulforhodamine B assays revealed that the HUVECs electrosprayed using the multi-hole spinneret remained viable and proliferated at a rate similar to that of the controls. Thus, the new multi-hole nozzle can considerably improve output for BES without affecting cell morphology, viability, and proliferation.

SummaryCultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) have been reported to produce extrinsic pathway inhibitor (EPI), the factor Xa-dependent inhibitor of factor VHa/tissue factor (TF). We examined the release of this inhibitor from HUVEC as a function of their growth state and in response to the induction of endothelial cell TF activity. HUVEC constitutively produced significant amounts of EPI at all stages of their growth in culture including the post-confluent state. Rate of release varied over a 3-fold range for primary cultures from 12 different batches of pooled umbilical cord cells. Constitutive EPI release was unaltered during a 6 hour period of induction of TF activity with thrombin or phorbol ester but slowed during longer incubation of the cells with phorbol ester. Whereas plasma contains two molecular weight forms of EPI, only the higher of these two molecular weight forms was demonstrable by Western analysis of HUVEC supernatants with 125I-factor Xa as the ligand.

Ammonium Sulphate Saturation

SummaryA preliminary characterization of a fibrinolytic inhibitor released by human umbilical vein endothelial cells in primary culture is reported. This molecule of Mr comprised between 2 × 105 and 106 and of μ2 mobility precipitates at 43% ammonium sulphate saturation and is totally adsorbed on Concanavalin A Sepharose 4 B. A possible relationship with a macroglobulins is discussed.
