摘要:
There is now accumulating evidence that bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) make an important contribution to postnatal vasculogenesis, especially during tissue ischaemia and tumour vascularization. Identifying mechanisms which regulate the role of MSCs in vasculogenesis is a key therapeutic objective, since while increased neovascularization can be advantageous during tissue ischaemia, it is deleterious during tumourigenesis. The potent angiogenic stimulant vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is known to regulate MSC mobilization and recruitment to sites of neovascularization, as well as directing the differentiation of MSCs to a vascular cell fate. Despite the fact that MSCs did not express VEGF receptors, we have recently identified that VEGF-A can stimulate platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptors, which regulates MSC migration and proliferation. This review focuses on the role of PDGF receptors in regulating the vascular cell fate of MSCs, with emphasis on the function of the novel VEGF-A/PDGF receptor signalling mechanism.
