Regulating stem cell contributions to vascularization is a challenging goal, but a fundamental aspect of regenerative medicine. Human mesenchymal stem cells retain considerable potential for adult vascular repair and regeneration therapies. They are readily obtained, rapidly proliferate in culture, display a capacity to differentiate towards endothelial or vascular smooth muscle cells, and play an important role in postnatal neovascularization in various tissue contexts. To therapeutically enhance neovascularization during ischemic disease, or inhibit neovascularization during tumorigenesis, an essential prerequisite is to determine the mechanisms which control the recruitment and differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells towards vascular cells.
