IL-3 Induces Expression of Lymphatic Markers Prox-1 and Podoplanin in Human Endothelial Cells
1 Dec 2004
Abstract excerpt
Factors determining lymphatic differentiation in the adult organism are not yet well characterized. We have made the observation that mixed primary cultures of dermal blood endothelial cells (BEC) and lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) grown under standard conditions change expression of markers during subculture: After passage 6, they uniformly express LEC-specific markers Prox-1 and podoplanin. Using sorted...
