METHOD OF ESTIMATING ANGIOGENIC POTENTIAL OF PROGENOTOR CELLS IN PATIENTS WITH CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASES Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC C12N5/71 C12N5/775 C12Q1/68 A61K48/00 A61P9/10 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: claimed invention relates to the field of biotechnology, namely to the preliminary estimation of the efficiency of the autologic cell material transplantation to stimulate the growth of blood vessels, and can be applied in medicine. Claimed is a method of the complex estimation of the angiogenic potential of progenitor cells in patients with cardiovascular diseases, tested on mesenchymal stromal cells of the adipose tissue (MSC-AT) of patients with ischemic heart disease and including the measurement of content of mRNA and proteins of basic angiogenic factors, produced by the progenitor cells such as the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), the placental growth factor (PIGF), the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), angiopoetin-1 and angiogenin, the angiogenic activity of total cell secretion products, as well as the estimation of the ability of the progenitor cells to stimulate the vascularisation of subcutaneous Matrigel implants, introduced to immunodeficient mice. As the screening method used is a simpler and more available but less informative method of express-assessment of the angiogenic properties of the progenitor cells, based on the measurement of the angiogenic activity of the total cell secretion products.

EFFECT: invention makes it possible to carry out testing of the autologic cell material obtained from the patients, including those with ischemic heart disease, before transplantation in order to choose the optimal tactics of cell therapy aimed at the stimulation of the growth of blood vessels.
