摘要
Bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are present in the systemic circulation, are augmented in response to certain cytokines and/or tissue ischemia, and are home to - as well as incorporate into - sites of neovascularization. On the basis of these aspects, EPCs have attractive potential therapeutic applications for cardiovascular ischemic diseases as a novel cell-based strategy, mainly via a vasculogenesis mechanism. This review provides an update of the biology of EPCs, as well as highlighting the potential use of these cells for therapeutic regeneration. © 2007 Japanese Society of Nephrology.
