摘要:
Recent advances in our understanding of adult non-hematopoietic stern/progenitor cell biology may lead to powerful new therapies for vascular repair and for the treatment of ischemic tissue injury. This chapter will provide an overview of several non-hematopoietic stern/progenitor cell types that engraft and contribute to the vasculature (mesenchymal stem cells, MSCs; endothelial and smooth muscle progenitor cells, EPCs and SPCs; adipose-derived stem cells, ADSCs; and cardiac stern cells, CSCs) and mechanisms of angiogenic and postnatal vasculogenic repair by adult stern/progenitor cells.
