Research Abstract |
We investigated the candidate genes which can become a marker to predict vascular endothelium growth factor (VEGF) secretional level of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs)under ischemia. hMSCs were cultured under normal condition or ischemic condition. Cell supernatant was collected after 24hr and VEGF were measured with ELISA. We analyzed the correlation between gene expression before ischemia (Affymetrix HG-U133Plus2.0) and VEGF secretion after ischemia in hMSCs among six lots. 17 genes showed positive correlation in all combination of pre-ischemic gene expression and post-ischemic VEGF level (the change of amount or rate). Furthermore, RNAi against 2 of the 17 genes reduced VEGF secretion in response to ischemia. In this study, 17 genes were identified as candidate genes which could assess quality and efficacy of hMSCs after ischemia. In addition, it is suggested that 2 genes, the knockdown of which decrease the VEGF response, contribute to enhance VEGF secretion under ischemia.
