Abstract excerpt
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) represent a heterogeneous cell population that is believed to be involved in vasculogenesis after ischemic diseases. EPCs could have a potential for future therapies with the purpose of enhancing endothelial repair. However, due to the low amount of these cells in circulation they have to be expanded in vitro before administration into recipients. The purpose of this study was...
