Abstract excerpt
Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PB-MNCs) have angiogenic properties, which make them promising cells for use in angiogenic therapy approaches in regenerative medicine. To explore an efficient method for expanding pro-angiogenic cells from PB-MNCs, we developed a novel serum-free culture system composed of X-VIVO15 medium supplemented with vascular endothelial growth factor, basic fibroblast growth...
