Postulated already a century ago,2 there is now ample evidence for a close association between blood progenitor cells and angiogenesis3 and the existence of a hemangioblastic progenitor capable of generating blood cells as well as endothelial cells.456 Also, the integration of bone marrow–derived endothelial cells or their progenitors into sites of neoangiogenesis is well-known.789 Their view that bone marrow–derived endothelial cells do not contribute substantially to the endothelium of blood vessels in stable adult tissue is equivocal. Endothelial cells are among those exhibiting the lowest replication level in the body with only 0.01% cells engaged in cell division at any time.10 Nevertheless, vascular endothelial cells that are lost from the vessel intima through necrosis or apoptosis must be replaced (maintenance angiogenesis). We are not aware of data showing that maintenance angiogenesis occurs through proliferation of adjacent endothelial cells. Thus, most likely, bone marrow–derived endothelial cells contribute to this maintenance angiogenesis.11Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can mobilize endothelial cells or their progenitors from the bone marrow,9 and the delivery of VEGF to subjects may be deleterious.1213 Hypoxia can also launch mobilization of endothelial precursor cells from the bone marrow, as hematopoietic cytokines (granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor) can do.14 Malignant tumor growth results in hypoxia within the neoplastic tissue, potentially mobilizing bone marrow–derived endothelial cells as well in a paracrine fashion, thus contributing to the sprouting of new tumor vessels. Moreover, cytokines accelerating hematopoietic recovery after myelotoxic chemotherapy might also promote the growth of tumor vessels by recruiting endothelial cells from the bone marrow, an issue that deserves critical evaluation.Footnotes[email protected] References 1 Crosby JR, Kaminski WE, Schatteman G, Martin PJ, Raines EW, Seifert RA, Bowen-Pope DF.
