An assay system is described which permits rapid and effective evaluation of endothelial cell repair, using cells growing in a monolayer. With this method it was possible to obtain highly significant results. For example, endothelial growth factor and heparin, significantly enhanced cell migration and/or proliferation, whereas .beta.-endorphin, an endogenous opioid, had no effect on the migration and/or proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells. This model may be used to study the cell migration of a variety of cell types which under certain experimental conditions (e.g., irradiation) do not proliferate.
