Hormesis and Endothelial Progenitor Cells [PDF]
Hormetic-biphasic dose response relationships are reported herein for human endothelial progenitor cells involving estradiol, nicotine, the anti-diabetic agent pioglitazone, resveratrol, and progesterone.

Endothelial Progenitor Cells in Diabetic Retinopathy [PDF]
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a leading cause of visual impairment worldwide. Patients with DR may irreversibly lose sight as a result of the development of diabetic macular edema (DME) and/or proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR); retinal blood vessel

Endothelial cells and endothelial progenitor cells in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis
Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a connective tissue disease characterized by excessive fibrosis, microvasculopathy, and autoimmunity. Endothelial cell (EC) injury and subsequent endothelial cell dysfunction is believed to be an initial event that eventually leads to a vicious pathogenic cycle.

Endothelial Progenitor Cells [PDF]
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.

Molecular mechanisms and modulation of Endothelial Progenitor Cell function in South Asian men [PDF]
South Asian ethnicity has long been considered a contributory factor in the development of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Endothelial dysfunction is considered to be the precursor of atherosclerosis, and South Asian ethnicity has been linked

Bone marrow derived cells as endothelial precursors and the role of multi-potent progenitor cells in repairing ischaemic tissues. [PDF]
PhDIntroduction: Atherosclerosis and its complications are a major cause of death and disability and it remains a major challenge to develop new therapies for patients with irreversible end organ damage and ongoing ischaemia.

Endothelial Progenitor Cells [PDF]
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.

Endothelial progenitor cells in atherosclerosis [PDF]
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 ...

Circulating endothelial progenitor cells [PDF]
Angiogenesis research investigates the formation of new blood vessels in wound healing, tumour growth and embryonic development. Circulating, bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) were first described 8 years ago, yet the exact nature of these endothelial precursor cells remains unclear.
