Endothelial colony-forming cells and transforming growth factor-β superfamily signalling in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension
2013-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Circulating endothelial progenitor cells may be important in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) and give rise to endothelial colony-forming cells (ECFCs) in culture. These cells represent an accessible surrogate population to investigate endothelial dysfunction in IPAH. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were cultured from healthy volunteers (n=25, 72% female; age range 23-57 yr)...
