Quantitative RT-PCR analysis of endothelial and progenitor cell marker expression in HPP-CFC compared with VVEC. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis was performed on total cellular mRNA isolated from VVEC-Co and VVEC-Hx populations. Expression levels of CD31, CD34, CD105, and CD133 mRNA were calculated relative to bovine 18S RNA in cell populations of control and hypoxic animals. Data represent mean relative mRNA expression; CD31: *P < 0.05, VVEC-Co vs. VVEC-Hx. c-kit: *P < 0.05, VVEC-Co vs. VVEC-Hx; ***P < 0.001, VVEC-Co vs. HPP-CFC-Co; #P < 0.05, HPP-CFC-Co vs. HPP-CFC-Hx; and **P < 0.01, HPP-CFC-Co vs. HPP-CFC-Hx. CD105: **P < 0.01, HPP-CFC-Co vs. HPP-CFC-Hx (CD105) (1-way ANOVA, followed by a Bonferroni posttest).
