Key Points
The study aims to isolate and assess the properties of endothelial stem cells from different tissues for potential applications in regenerative medicine.
Analyzed the presence of endothelial-side population (E-SP) cells in various tissues.
Performed Hoechst dye DNA staining to assess the proliferative ability of E-SP cells.
Conducted neovascular formation analysis using E-SP cells from adipose tissue in a hind limb ischemia model.
E-SP cells were detected in adipose tissue, skin, and placenta.
E-SP cells from adipose tissue and skin displayed high proliferative abilities in in vitro assays.
Adipose tissue-derived E-SP cells contributed to neovascular formation in a hind limb ischemia model.
