Molecular mechanisms and modulation of Endothelial Progenitor Cell function in South Asian men [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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]

open access: yes, 2007
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.

Angiogenic potential of endothelial progenitor cells and embryonic stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are implicated in a range of pathological conditions, suggesting a natural therapeutic role for EPCs in angiogenesis.

Downregulation of ETS rescues diabetes-induced reduction of endothelial progenitor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background Transplantation of vasculogenic progenitor cells (VPC) improves neovascularization after ischemia. However, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus show a reduced VPC number and impaired functional activity. Previously, we demonstrated that p38

Folic acid supplementation normalizes the endothelial progenitor cell transcriptome of patients with type 1 diabetes: a case-control pilot study

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2009
Background Endothelial progenitor cells play an important role in vascular wall repair. Patients with type 1 diabetes have reduced levels of endothelial progenitor cells of which their functional capacity is impaired. Reduced nitric oxide bioavailability

Meso-Endothelial Bipotent Progenitors from Human Placenta Display Distinct Molecular and Cellular Identity

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: The existence of bipotential precursors for both mesenchymal and endothelial stem/progenitor cells in human postnatal life is debated. Here, we hypothesized that such progenitors are present within the human term placenta.

Circulating humoral factors and endothelial progenitor cells in patients with differing coronary collateral support [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Background - The mechanisms underlying the variation in collateral formation between patients, even with similar patterns of coronary artery disease, remain unclear.

Quantification of circulating endothelial progenitor cells using the modified ISHAGE protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Aims: Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPC), involved in endothelial regeneration, neovascularisation, and determination of prognosis in cardiovascular disease can be characterised with functional assays or using immunofluorescence and flow ...

Prostaglandin E Positively Modulates Endothelial Progenitor Cell Homeostasis: An Advanced Treatment Modality for Autologous Cell Therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Aims: The mobilization of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) and their functioning in postnatal neovascularization are tightly regulated. To identify new modulators of EPC homeostasis, we screened biologically active prostaglandin E compounds for their ...

High calcium bioglass enhances differentiation and survival of endothelial progenitor cells, inducing early vascularization in critical size bone defects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Early vascularization is a prerequisite for successful bone healing and endothelial progenitor cells (EPC), seeded on appropriate biomaterials, can improve vascularization.
