Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides a method of forming an EPC colony with good reproducibility, and a method of analyzing the dynamics of EPC differentiation in the body of patient. More specifically, the present invention provides a method of analyzing the dynamics of differentiation of endothelial progenitor cells, which includes culturing hemangioblasts in a semisolid medium containing a vascular endothelial growth factor and a basic fibroblast growth factor, and evaluating the mode of endothelial progenitor cell colony formation; a method of forming an endothelial progenitor cell colony which includes culturing hemangioblasts in a semisolid medium containing a vascular endothelial growth factor and a basic fibroblast growth factor; a semisolid medium containing a vascular endothelial growth factor and a basic fibroblast growth factor; and a kit for preparing the semisolid medium and the like.
