| Abstract |
Recently, cell-based therapeutic lymphangiogenesis has emerged and provided hope for lymphatic regeneration. Previous studies have demonstrated that secretomes of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) facilitate the regeneration of various damaged tissues. This study was conducted to evaluate the lymphangiogenic potential of hypoxic conditioned media (HCM) from MSCs. To investigate the effects of MSC-secreted factors in starved human lymphatic endothelial cells (hLEC), hLECs were treated with endothelial basal medium (EBM)-2 (control), normoxic conditioned media (NCM), or HCM in vitro and in vivo. MSCs expressed lymphangiogenic factors including EGF, FGF2, HGF, IGF-1, and VEGF-A and -C. hLECs were treated with each medium. hLEC proliferation, migration, and tube formation were improved under HCM compared with NCM. Moreover, expression of mitochondrial-related factors, MFN1and 2, were improved in HCM-treated hLECs. Lymphedema mice injected with HCM showed markedly decreased lymphedema via increased lymphatic vessel formation when compared with EBM-2- or NCM-treated mice. This study suggested that HCM from MSCs contain high levels of secreted lymphangiogenic factors and promote lymphangiogenesis by regulating mitochondrial-related factors. Thus, treatment with HCM may be a therapeutic strategy for lymphedema. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 March 2016.
All research outputs
#14,842,329
of 22,856,968 outputs
Outputs from Stem Cell Research & Therapy
#1,205
of 2,422 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#168,674
of 299,532 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Stem Cell Research & Therapy
#25
of 38 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,856,968 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,422 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 5.0. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 299,532 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 40th percentile – i.e., 40% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 38 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
