DTR-mediated endothelial cell ablation after DT administration. A) Immunostaining for GFP, DTR, and DAPI on liver, heart, and lung sections from Cdh5-DTRGFP mice. B) A schematic showing experimental design. One pulse of PBS/DT was injected at 6 weeks, and mice were sacrificed after 2 days. C) Survival of DT treatment- and ctrl-mice. D) Bright field of the liver from DT-induced and ctrl mice. E) Immunostaining for GFP on livers from PBS- and DT-treated mice. F) Immunostaining for GFP, VE-cad, Ter119, and DAPI on liver, heart, and lung sections from mice treated with PBS or DT shows a significant leakiness of blood cells (arrowheads) in DT-treated mice. G) Analysis of the Ter119+ erythrocytes in liver, heart, and lung sections per 20×field from different sections. H) Schematic model of DTR-mediated endothelial cell ablation and vascular leakage. Upon binding to its DT, the DTR expressed on endothelial cells triggers specific cell death pathways. This resultant endothelial cell loss disrupts the integrity of the vascular wall, leading to vessel rupture and subsequent extravasation of erythrocytes. Data are means ± SEM. n = 5 mice. The yellow scale bar represents 2000 μm. The white scale bar represents 100 μm.

Cell Regen Research | CPP drives rapid endothelial differentiation of umbilical cord MSCs! 🧬🧬🧬 >90% VEC conversion in 5 days via MEG3 regulation—functional in vitro & in vivo. #StemCells #VascularRegeneration
🔗 Full paper at: doi.org/10.1186/s136...
Take-home figure: CPP drives the differentiation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) into functionally competent vascular endothelial cells (VECs). Crucially, the long non-coding RNA MEG3 acts as a pivotal regulator within this differentiation pathway.
