Endothelial Progenitor Cells in Cerebrovascular Disease [PDF]

Stroke, 2005
To the Editor: In their interesting article, Ghani and colleagues reported a reduction in endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in patients with cerebrovascular disease, when compared with healthy control subjects.1 However, the authors did not mention a recent article by Taguchi et al reporting that CD34+ cells and CD133+ cells, as an EPC-enriched ...

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

Cardiovascular 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

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.

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

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

Insights into Endothelial Progenitor Cells: Origin, Classification, Potentials, and Prospects

Stem Cells International, 2018
With the discovery of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in the late 1990s, a paradigm shift in the concept of neoangiogenesis occurred. The identification of circulating EPCs in peripheral blood marked the beginning of a new era with enormous potential

Prehypertension and endothelial progenitor cell function [PDF]

Journal of Human Hypertension, 2010
Prehypertension is associated with significant damage to the coronary vasculature and increased rates of adverse cardiovascular events. Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are critical to vascular repair and the formation of new blood vessels. We tested the hypothesis that prehypertension is associated with EPC dysfunction. Peripheral blood

Exosomes from Endothelial Progenitor Cells Improve the Outcome of a Murine Model of Sepsis.

Molecular Therapy, 2018
Microvascular dysfunction leads to multi-organ failure and mortality in sepsis. Our previous studies demonstrated that administration of exogenous endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) confers protection in sepsis as evidenced by reduced vascular leakage ...

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

, 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]

, 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 ...

Induction of Neurogenesis and Angiogenesis in a Rat Hemisection Spinal Cord Injury Model With Combined Neural Stem Cell, Endothelial Progenitor Cell, and Biomimetic Hydrogel Matrix Therapy

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.
