Summary of the effects of endothelial cell attachment to fibronectin and gelatin on hemostatic regulator molecule expression.
ECM Protein | Substrate Application | Cell type | Molecules tested | Results |
---|---|---|---|---|
Gelatin | Gelatin coat on TCPS | Bovine aortic endothelial cell; human saphenous vein endothelial cell | PGI2, PAI, tPA | Increase in NO and PAI; Decrease in PGI2 compared to TCPS7, 53 |
ePTFE with gelatin coat | Human umbilical vein endothelial cell | PGI2, PAI-1, tPA | Increase in PGI2, PAI-1 and t-PA compared to bare100 | |
PEG-RGD hydrogel | Porcine aortic valvular endothelial cell | ADAMTS-13, TFPI, tPA, vWF, TF, P-selectin | ADAMTS-13, TFPI, tPA, tPA, vWF, TF, P-selectin all increased compared to TCPS6 | |
Fibronectin | Fibronectin coat on TCPS | Bovine aortic; human umbilical vein; human saphenous vein | PGI2, vWF, tPA, PAI-1 | Increase in PGI2; decreased vWF compared to TCPS; no significant change in tPA7, 53, 165 |
ePTFE with Fn coat | Human saphenous vein endothelial cell; human umbilical vein endothelial cell | tPA, PGI2, PAI-1 | Increase in PGI2 and tPA compared to bare ePTFE; no significant change in PAI-196, 175 |
