Abstract: Objective To engineer vascularized tissue with two types of cells from peripheral blood. Methods Endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) and peripheral blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (PBMSC) were isolated from rabbit peripheral blood and identified. Then, they were cultured in fibrin at different ratios under the observation of a microscope until the 7th day after the initial creation. Results EPC and PBMSC were successfully isolated from rabbit peripheral blood. Vascularized tissue were acquired at a certain ratio (EPC were 1 million cells/mL, PBMSC were 2 million cells/mL). Conclusion Certain cells isolated from peripheral blood can be used to acquire vascularized tissue by co-cultured strategy at a certain density in vitro.

Key words: EPC, PBMSC, fibin, vascularization in vitro
