Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of the tissue distribution of transplanted human endothelial progenitor cells by radioactive labeling.

TL;DR: Although only a small proportion of radiolabeled EPCs are detected in nonischemic myocardium, myocardial infarction increases homing of transplanted E PCs in vivo profoundly, which might eventually provide an useful tool for monitoring the fate of transplants progenitor cells and for clinical cell therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transdifferentiation of Blood-Derived Human Adult Endothelial Progenitor Cells Into Functionally Active Cardiomyocytes

TL;DR: EPCs from healthy volunteers and CAD patients can transdifferentiate in vitro into functionally active cardiomyocytes when cocultivated with rat cardiomers, and the therapeutic use of autologous EPCs may aid cardiomeocyte regeneration in patients with ischemic heart disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enteroviral protease 2A cleaves dystrophin: Evidence of cytoskeletal disruption in an acquired cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: It is demonstrated here that purified Coxsackievirus protease 2A cleaves dystrophin in vitro as predicted by computer analysis, suggesting a molecular mechanism through which enteroviral infection contributes to the pathogenesis of acquired forms of dilated cardiomyopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Akt-dependent phosphorylation of p21(Cip1) regulates PCNA binding and proliferation of endothelial cells.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Akt phosphorylates the cell cycle inhibitory protein p21Cip1 at Thr 145 in vitro and in intact cells as shown by in vitro kinase assays, site-directed mutagenesis, and phospho-peptide analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 Couples AKT-dependent Signaling to the Regulation of p21Cip1 Degradation

TL;DR: Data indicate that GSK-3 triggers p21Cip1 degradation, and stimulation of AKT increases p21 cip1 via inhibitory phosphorylation of G SK-3, which indicates that a kinase downstream ofAKT regulates p21 Cip1 protein levels.
