Recombinant Vascular endothelial growth factor is a disulfide-linked homodimer protein consisting of 165 amino acid residue subunits, and migrates as an approximately 38 kDa protein under non-reducing and as 19 kDa under reducing conditions in SDS-PAGE.
Purity
>95%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg(1EU/µg).
Presentation
RecombinantVEGF was lyophilized from.2 μm filteredmM PB solution, pH7.0 .
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers
Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least years from date of receipt at -20° C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at2° -8° C for one month, or at -20° C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Methods
Endothelial Sprouting Assay
- Endothelial sprouting assay was performed as described 4 ESC were seeded in 35 mm dishes in 1.2 mg/ml collagen, type I neutralized with 0.1 N NaOH.
- Collagen media contained 15% FBS, 450 µm MTG, 10 µg/ml insulin , 50 ng/ml human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF, , ), 100 ng/ml human basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2, , ) in IMDM.
- Cells were incubated at 37°C, 5% CO2.
- At day 6, 200 µl media without collagen was added and EB were analyzed on day 11.
- Image analysis was performed using AxioVision LE Software .
Endothelial differentiation and immunocytochemical analysis
- Endothelial differentiation was induced as described previously with some modifications [2) in each well.
- 1 × 104 hADSCs were seeded in plates and incubated for up to 15 days in medium'>medium'>medium'>endothelial medium'>medium'>differentiation medium'>medium containing medium'>medium'>medium'>endothelial medium'>growth medium'>medium (EGM2-MV) supplemented with 50 ng/mL vascular medium'>medium'>medium'>endothelial medium'>growth factor-165 (VEGF165) , 100 U/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin.
- 15 days after endothelial differentiation started, the cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 min at room temperature, and rinsed with PBS.
- The fixed cells were then incubated for 1 hour at 37°C with mouse antibodies against human CD31 or CD34 , KDR at 1:500 dilution.
- After incubation in a blocking solution containing 1% normal goat serum, they were…

H1 hESCs were plated at 3 × 106 per well of 6-well ultralow attachment (ULA) plates in a total volume of 4 mL of medium'>X-VIVO-15 medium , supplemented with 1 mM sodium pyruvate, nonessential amino acids, 2 mM L-glutamine (all PAA Laboratories GmbH) and 5 
μ M 2-mercaptoethanol . - The following growth factors were added: 50 ng/mL recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP-4, & ), 50 ng/mL recombinant human vascular endothelial growth factor , 20 ng/mL recombinant human stem cell factor , and 50 ng/mL recombinant human granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF, & ).
- After 2-3 days, the medium was topped up with 2 mL of fresh supplemented X-VIVO-15 medium to produce a total volume of 6 mL.
- Subsequent feeding was performed every 2-3 days by replacing 2-3 mL of old medium with new supplemented X-VIVO-15 medium from which every 5 days a growth factor was removed starting with BMP-4 at day 5, followed by VEGF at…

Generation and administration of UC-MSCs
- UCs (n = 10, clinically normal pregnancies, approved by the Qilu hospital’s human research ethics committee) were excised and washed in a 0.1 mol/l phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) to remove excess blood.
- The cords were dissected and the blood vessels were removed.
- The remaining tissues were cut into small pieces (1–2 mm3) and placed in plates with low-glucose medium'>ulbecco-modified medium'>Eagle medium (L-MEM) , supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 2 ng/mL vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF& , , ), 2 ng/mL epidermal growth factor (EGF& ), 2 ng/mL fibroblast growth factor (FGF& ), 100 U/ml penicillin, and 100 μg/ml streptomycin .

- At this time, the small tissue pieces were removed from the culture and the adherent fibroblast-like…
Isolation of primary human LSECs
- Human liver endothelial cells were isolated from liver tissue from patients undergoing surgical liver resection.
- The tissue was collected with informed consent and under local ethics committee approval of the University of Bern.
- Approximately 30 g of liver was cut into 2 mm3 pieces and digested in 50 ml PBS containing 10 mg/ml collagenase 1A for 90 min at 37 °C.
- The resultant solution was then filtered through a sterile 0.5 mm steel mesh, the supernatant centrifuged at 300 ×
g for 8 min, and the pellet then resuspended on 10 ml PBS. - This digest was then layered on a 33%/77% Percoll density gradient, centrifuged for 30 min at 800 ×
g 4 °C and the non-parenchymal layer removed, pelleted and resuspended in 500 μ l of PBS. - Endothelial cells were isolated from this fraction by immunomagnetic selection using a mouse anti-CD31 antibody , followed by an anti-mouse IgG Dynabead, 30 min incubation with each and magnetic separation was performed on MACS columns.
