Crystallographic structures of stromal cell–derived factor-1α (SDF)27 and designed model
structure of ESA. The different regions of the structure are colored as N-terminal (green), central
region (yellow), and C-terminal (magenta).

Top and side view of model stromal cell–derived factor-1α (SDF) analog peptides using 1-proline
(A), 2-proline (B), and 3-proline (C) residues to link the N- and C-termini.

All of the residues from the ESA loop or linker region (F14, E15, S16, and L20) are located inside
favored regions in the Ramachandran plots (bounded by the blue and purple lines), which
indicate allowable bond angles.

Isolated endothelial progenitor cells cultured and stimulated with either stromal cell–derived
factor-1α (A and B) or ESA (C and D) demonstrated robust and universal expression of the
chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4 receptor; green).

At 2 weeks, border-zone myocardial tissue samples show increased levels of mouse
angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) in the ESA-treated and stromal cell–derived factor-1α (SDF)–treated
groups compared with the control group.
