The understanding of heparin/HS-protein interactions at the molecular level is of fundamental importance to biology and will aid in the development of highly specific glycan-based therapeutic agents. The heparin-binding proteins (HBPs) interact with sulfated domains of heparin/HS chains primarily through ionic attraction between negatively charged groups in HS/heparin chains and basic amino acid residues within the protein. Reports in literature have been shown that heparin molecules have a high affinity for a wide range of metal ions. In the present study, we used surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to study the effects of metal ions (under physiological and non-physiological concentrations) on heparin/HS-protein interactions. The results showed that under non-physiological of metal ion concentration, different metal ions showed different effects on heparin binding to fibroblast growth factor-1 (FGF1) and interleakin-7 (IL7). While the effects of individual metal ion at physiological concentrations had little impact on protein binding, the mixed metal ions reduced the FGF1/heparin or IL7/heparin binding affinity, changing its binding profile.","PeriodicalId":91529,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomedical technology and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5589159/pdf/nihms898956.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35393204","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

MSCs are attractive candidates for cell therapy because of easy isolation, high expansion potential giving unlimited pool of transplantable cells, low immunogenicity, amenability to ex vivo genetic modification, and multipotency. The stem cells orchestrate the repair process by various mechanisms such as transdifferentiation, cell fusion, microvesicles or exosomes and most importantly by secreting paracrine factors. The MSCs release several angiogenic, mitogenic, anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative factors that play fundamental role in regulating tissue repair in various vascular and cardiac diseases. The therapeutic release of these factors by the cells can be enhanced by several strategies like genetic modification, physiological and pharmacological preconditioning, improved cell culture and selection methods, and biomaterial based approaches. The current review describes the impact of paracrine factors released by MSCs on vascular repair and regeneration in myocardial infarction, restenosis and peripheral artery disease, and the various strategies adopted to enhance the release of these paracrine factors to enhance organ function.","PeriodicalId":91529,"journal":{"name":"Journal of biomedical technology and research","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5589200/pdf/nihms898750.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35393207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
