TL;DR: A soluble factor, endothelial proliferation factor, appears to be a unique property of tumor cells and may mediate the vascularization of these neoplasms.
Abstract: Cultured endothelial cells exhibit a six- to tenfold increase in thymidine labeling index in response to a soluble factor elaborated by clonal cell lines of neural origin. This factor, endothelial proliferation factor, appears to be a unique property of tumor cells and may mediate the vascularization of these neoplasms.

TL;DR: Observations are extended to include the effects of certain platelet components on endothelial cell replication to influence the rate at which endothelial cells grow in vivo as well as in vitro.

TL;DR: It has been demonstrated that these cultured human endothelial cells synthesize and release factor VIII antigen but not factor VIII clot-promoting activity.
Abstract: Endothelial cells have been isolated from freshly obtained human umbilical cords by collagenase digestion of the interior of the umbilical vein and grown in tissue culture. These cells have been identified by morphologic and immunologic criteria. It has been demonstrated that these cultured human endothelial cells synthesize and release factor VIII antigen but not factor VIII clot-promoting activity.
