DIABETES IMPAIRS THERAPEUTIC EFFECT OF ENDOTHELIAL PROGENITOR CELL EXOSOME-MEDIATED MYOCARDIAL REPAIR
… and others have shown that bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (BM-EPCs) promote cardiac neovascularization and attenuate ischemic injury in animal models. Lately, emerging evidence supports that exosomes (Exo), a family of extracellular vesicles, mediate stem cell therapy by …

CD133 Antibody Conjugation to Decellularized Human Heart Valves For Circulating Endothelial Progenitor Cell Capture
… and calcification. To avoid this degeneration, decellularized heart valves with functionalized surfaces capable of rapid in vivo endothelialization have been developed. The aim of this study is to examine the capacity of CD133 antibody-conjugated valve tissue to capture circulating endothelial …

Peripheral arterial disease and diabetes: effects on endothelial progenitor cell differentiation and nitric oxide metabolism
… disease arising from the combination of endothelial dysfunction and inflammation. Endothelial dysfunction is a broad term that implies diminished production or availability of nitric oxide (NO) and/or an imbalance in the relative contribution of endothelium-derived relaxing factors. The …

A Critical Role Of Cxcr2 Pdz Motif-Mediated Interactions In Endothelial Progenitor Cell Homing And Angiogenesis
<p>Bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) participate in postnatal vascularization in response to growth factors, cytokines, and chemokines. Chemokine receptor CXCR2 and its cognate ligands are reported to mediate EPC recruitment and angiogenesis. CXCR2 possesses a consensus …

Vascular biology in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy and pre-eclampsia
… activation, arterial stiffness and circulating endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) number are established indicators of vascular pathology and prognosis.

Differential effects of fatty acids on the endothelium
Background: Endothelial dysfunction is a major factor in the development of atherosclerosis, thrombosis and heart disease. Evidence suggests dietary fat composition may modify cardiovascular risk, as well as surrogate markers of cardiovascular risk such as blood pressure, arterial stiffness and …
