Emerging evidence suggests that bone marrow-derived endothelial, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells contribute to tissue vascularization during both embryonic and postnatal physiological processes. Recent preclinical and pioneering clinical studies have shown that introduction of bone marrow-derived endothelial and hematopoietic progenitors can restore tissue vascularization after ischemic events in limbs,...
