Abstract: ObjectiveTo observe the effects of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) on vessel endothelial cells proliferation and microvessel formation in vitro.MethodsBMSCs and brain vessel endothelial cells were separated from adult and divided into co-culture group of BMSCs and endothelial cells, medium group of BMSCs, comparison group. Endothelial cells proliferation and microvessel formation were observed. ResultsEndothelial cells were promoted to proliferate and formate the microvessel in medium group and co-culture group. And the effect was prominence in co-culture group.ConclusionBMSCs can promote the proliferation and microvessel formation of endothelial cells.

Key words: bone marrow stromal cells, endothelial cells, microvessel
