Endothelial Progenitor Cells [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2004 Infusion of different hematopoietic stem cell populations and ex vivo expanded endothelial progenitor cells augments neovascularization of tissue after ischemia and contributes to reendothelialization after endothelial injury, thereby, providing a novel therapeutic option. However, controversy exists with respect to the identification and the origin of

Common endothelial progenitor cell assays identify discrete endothelial progenitor cell populations [PDF]
American Heart Journal, 2009 Multiple measures of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have been described, but there has been limited study of the comparability of these assays. We sought to determine the reproducibility of and correlation between alternative EPC assay methodologies.We simultaneously assessed EPC numbers in 140 patients undergoing cardiac catheterization using the

Endothelial Progenitor Cells [PDF]
New England Journal of Medicine, 2003 Vascular endothelial cells form a lining — one cell thick — for all the blood vessels in the body, providing a critical interface between the vessel itself and blood-borne elements.

Endothelial Progenitor Cells [PDF]
Annual Review of Medicine, 2005 Endothelial progenitor cells are a circulating, bone marrow–derived cell population that appears to participate in both vasculogenesis and vascular homeostasis. Questions persist regarding their functional characteristics, as well as the precise panel of cell surface markers that uniquely define this newly described progenitor cell population.

Placental growth factor expression is required for bone marrow endothelial cell support of primitive murine hematopoietic cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Two distinct microenvironmental niches that regulate hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell physiology in the adult bone marrow have been proposed; the endosteal and the vascular niche.

Critical Care Explorations, 2021 OBJECTIVES:. Acute spinal cord injury is a devastating injury that may lead to loss of independent function. Stem-cell therapies have shown promise; however, a clinically efficacious stem-cell therapy has yet to be developed.

Endothelial progenitor cells in atherosclerosis [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2012 Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are involved in the maintenance of endothelial homoeostasis and in the process of new vessel formation. Experimental and clinical studies have shown that atherosclerosis is associated with reduced numbers and dysfunction of EPCs; and that medications alone are able to partially reverse the impairment of EPCs in ...

Endothelial progenitor cells in pregnancy [PDF]
Reproduction, 2007 Abstract The discovery of endothelial progenitor cells has generated considerable interest in the field of vascular biology. These cells arise from a population of circulating mononuclear cells and have the capacity to form new blood vessels and contribute to vascular repair. Circulating endothelial progenitor cell numbers are reduced

PLoS ONE, 2022 Cardiomyocyte proliferation has emerged as the main source of new cardiomyocytes in the adult. Progenitor cell populations may on the other hand contribute to the renewal of other cell types, including endothelial and smooth muscle cells.
