Based on the results obtained from the developmental studies, they speculate that new LECs could arise from preexisting lymphatic vessels through the process of lymphangiogenesis or, alternatively, they could originate from
angioblast niches maintained within veins, or throughout the body, via lymph vasculogenesis.
The former vasculogenesis is the formation of new blood vessels from bone marrow derived
angioblast, while the latter is formation of new blood vessels from already present vascular structures.
Y Semaphorin3a1 regulates
angioblast migration and vascular development in zebrafish embryos.
Evidence accumulated in the past two decades indicates that peripheral blood cells contain a subpopulation with properties similar to embryonic
angioblast [23-26].
Therapies employing adult stem cells are being developed by various companies (such as ViaCell, StemSource, Osiris Therapeutics, Neural Stem, and
Angioblast) and are moving fast from the laboratory to the clinic.
- Acquired 100% of
Angioblast and entire intellectual property for MPCs
12 May 2010 - Australian biotechnology company Mesoblast Limited (ASX: MSB) said today it plans to purchase the 67% stake it does not already own in US sector player
Angioblast Systems Inc in a bid to expand its portfolio.
Articles then review strategies for cell delivery, clinical trials, therapies such as whole bone marrow transplantation, clinical
angioblast therapy and the use of skeletal myoblasts and other techniques, and the future of the field.
The trials are being conducted in conjunction with Mesoblast U.S.-based sister company,
Angioblast Systems Inc.
The term "haemangioblast" was coined by Murray [4] and is different from "
angioblast," as initially suggested by Sabin [10].
