Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) are cells derived from the endothelium of veins from the umbilical cord. They are used as a laboratory model system for the study of the function and pathology of endothelial cells (e.g., angiogenesis). [1] .

HUV-EC-C [HUVEC] is an endothelial cell line that was isolated from the vein of the umbilical cord. This cell line can be used in cardiovascular disease research.

Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC) provide a classic model system to study many aspects of endothelial function and disease, such as normal, abnormal and tumor-associated angiogenesis, oxidative stress, hypoxia and inflammation related pathways in endothelia under normal and pathological conditions, cardiovascular-related ...

HUVEC are human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Each vial of this product contains ≥5 × 10 5 cells that have been cryopreserved at the end of the primary culture stage in a medium containing 10% DMSO.

The present review focuses on the best-characterized endothelial cells—human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs)—attempting to estimate whether the co-culture approach, using these cells, could bring us closer to development and possible clinical application of …

Normal Primary Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC), when grown in Vascular Cell Basal Media supplemented with Endothelial Cell Growth Kit components, provide an ideal cell system to propagate HUVEC in low serum conditions with or without the addition of human recombinant VEGF.

Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) have represented the most common EC type used for in vitro endothelial cell research since 1973, due to the simple, quick, and inexpensive isolation process [3].
