Transdifferentiation of endothelial progenitor cells into rhabdomyosarcoma defined by hedgehog signaling competence [PDF]
Summary: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a pediatric soft tissue sarcoma resembling developing skeletal muscle, but tumors are found in sites devoid of skeletal muscle, suggesting a non-myogenic cell of origin. We previously described an endothelial progenitor

Endothelial stem and progenitor cells (stem cells): (2017 Grover Conference Series)
The capacity of existing blood vessels to give rise to new blood vessels via endothelial cell sprouting is called angiogenesis and is a well-studied biologic process.

High levels of endothelial progenitor cells and circulating endothelial cells in patients with Behçet's disease and their relationship to disease activity [PDF]
: Background: Behçet's disease is a multisystemic vasculitis, associated with vascular endothelial dysfunction. Currently, the prognosis is unpredictable, because there is still no valid laboratory marker indicating the disease activity in Behçet's ...

Endothelial Progenitor Cells as Biomarkers of Cardiovascular Pathologies: A Narrative Review
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) may influence the integrity and stability of the vascular endothelium. The association of an altered total EPC number and function with cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and risk factors (CVF) was discussed; however, their ...

Does erythropoietin therapy affect circulating endothelial cells in hemodialysis patients?
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 ...

Placental growth factor expression is required for bone marrow endothelial cell support of primitive murine hematopoietic cells. [PDF]
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.
