Endothelial Progenitor Cells for Vascular Medicine

Abstract excerpt

The regenerative potential of stem cells has recently been under intense investigation. In vitro, stem and progenitor cells have the ability for self-renewal and differentiation into organ-specific cell types. In vivo, transplantation of these cells may reconstitute organ systems, as shown in animal models of disease. In contrast, differentiated cells do not exhibit such characteristics. Human endothelial...
