Circulating Progenitor and Apoptotic Progenitor Cells in Patients With Aortic Regurgitation

Circulation Journal, 2013
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have a role in the repair of endothelial surfaces after injury. Reduced numbers of EPCs are related to endothelial dysfunction and adverse clinical events, suggesting that endothelial injury in the absence of sufficient repair by circulating EPCs promotes the progression of vascular disease or valvular disorder.

Comparison of creatinine and cystatin C estimation of glomerular filtration rate in the Fontan circulation

International Journal of Cardiology Congenital Heart Disease, 2021
Background: The Fontan circulation is associated with low skeletal muscle mass, which affects the accuracy of creatinine-based glomerular filtration rate estimates (eGFR/GFR). Cystatin C, another filtration marker, is less impacted by muscle mass.
