Table 1.

Cues used in the study to induce or enhance the formation of an endothelial layer.

cues mechanism of enhancing endothelialization effect of endothelialization
Fn, collagen or decellularized ECMs integrin-induced endothelial cell adhesion slow (for days) and limited endothelialization
CD34 antibody capturing of EPCs (containing early EPCs) rapid (for hours) endothelialization but the captured EPCs may differentiate into SMCs
peptide aptamer capturing of late EPCs rapid, pure but limited endothelialization due to small amount of late EPCs
