Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Coculture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells can improve both osteogenic and angiogenic outcomes and provide a promising strategy for bone tissue engineering and osteanagenesis.
OBJECTIVE: To summarize recent researches and related progresses in coculture of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
METHODS: A computer-based online search of CNKI database from January 2000 to March 2012, PubMed database and Web of Knowledge database from January 1980 to March 2012, was performed with the keywords of “human umbilical vein endothelial cells, bone mesenchymal stem cells, coculture, tissue engineering” both in Chinese and English. A total of 135 articles were screened out, 103 of them were excluded due to unrelated study objective and repeated contents, and finally 32 articles were involved in further analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At present, studies on coculture of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells mainly focus on mimicking in vivo environments, the interactions between cells, and the influence of different cell ratios and culture media. Most of these researches play important roles in bone tissue engineering and bone regeneration therapy, but the mechanism of action and concrete regulation in vivo between bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and human umbilical vein endothelial cells still need further research and analysis.
