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

Human Endothelial Progenitor Cells [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2011 Human endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have been generally defined as circulating cells that express a variety of cell surface markers similar to those expressed by vascular endothelial cells, adhere to endothelium at sites of hypoxia/ischemia, and participate in new vessel formation.

CD34 positive cells as endothelial progenitor cells in biology and medicine
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 CD34 is a cell surface antigen expressed in numerous stem/progenitor cells including hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), which are known to be rich sources of EPCs.

Does erythropoietin therapy affect circulating endothelial cells in hemodialysis patients?
Український Журнал Нефрології та Діалізу, 2020 Anemia is a common complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD). The most common cause of anemia in CKD is erythropoietin deficiency; and the most important cause of mortality in CKD patients is atherosclerotic vascular complications which are ...
