High Glucose Impairs Early and Late Endothelial Progenitor Cells by Modifying Nitric Oxide–Related but Not Oxidative Stress–Mediated Mechanisms

Abstract: OBJECTIVE-Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are impaired in diabetes. This study aimed to investigate the direct effects of high glucose on EPCs.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS-Mononuclear cells isolated from healthy subjects were incubated with glucose/ mannitol or drugs for EPC study. After 4 days of culture, attached early EPCs appeared. The monolayer late EPCs with cobblestone shape appeared at 2-4 weeks. Various immunofluroscence stainings were used to characterize the early and late EPCs. Senescence assay … Show more

“…Recently, however, Chen et al (35) demonstrated that adult peripheral blood ECFCs treated with hyperglycemia exhibited enhanced senescence and reduced tube-forming ability in vitro, although the dextrose concentrations required to induce these phenotypes were much higher (20 -30 mmol/l or 360 -540 mg/dl) compared with our studies. The distinction between the degree of hyperglycemia required to induce functional changes in neonatal versus adult ECFCs may reflect important developmental differences that deserve further investigation.…”

“…Specifically, diabetes has been shown to be associated with a significant impairment in adaptive vascular growth of both capillarylike tube vessels and collateral vessels [1,2]. Increasing evidence indicates that high glucose and AGEs are the initiating causes of vascular damage in diabetes [3,4], acting on both resident endothelial cells (ECs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) [5,6]. Although multiple growth factors have been shown to regulate vascular growth, little is known about the complex upstream regulation of gene expression and translation in these settings.…”

“…(Povsic et al 2009). Two distinct EPC populations, including early and late cells, have been identified based on identified differences on outgrowth capability and specific cell surface markers (Chen et al 2007). Recent evidence also unveiled the critical role of Tie-2 receptor on functional and in the development of definitive angiogenesis process (Reinardy et al 2015).…”
