Background— Recently, accumulating evidence has indicated that bone marrow–derived stem cells are capable of differentiating into vascular cells. It has been hypothesized that the inflammatory response after vascular injury triggers the mobilization of endothelial and smooth muscle progenitor cells from bone marrow.
Methods and Results— We measured circulating CD34-positive mononuclear cells, activation of integrin Mac-1 on the surface of neutrophils, and plasma granulocyte-colony stimulating factor levels in 40 patients undergoing coronary stenting. After bare-metal stenting, CD34-positive cells increased, reaching a maximum on day 7 after stenting. The maximum change compared with baseline before stenting was more striking in patients with restenosis than without restenosis (332±108% versus 148±49%; P<0.05). In contrast, CD34-positive cells decreased after sirolimus-eluting stenting (72±21% on day 7). The change in CD34-positive cells on day 7 relative to baseline was closely correlated with that in activated Mac-1 at 48 hours (R=0.52, P<0.01) and that in granulocyte-colony stimulating factor levels at 24 hours (R=0.42, P<0.05). Cell culture assay on day 7 showed that mononuclear cells differentiated into CD31-positive endothelium-like cells after bare-metal stenting. In patients with restenosis, mononuclear cells differentiating into 
-smooth muscle actin–positive smooth muscle–like cells also were observed. Implantation of sirolimus-eluting stents suppressed both types of differentiation.
Conclusions— Stent implantation may induce differentiation of bone marrow cells into endothelial or smooth muscle cells. Endothelial cells may participate in reendothelialization, a protective reaction against vascular injury, whereas smooth muscle cells may participate in neointimal thickening and restenosis. Sirolimus-eluting stents appear to inhibit the mobilization and differentiation of bone marrow cells.
