abstract：BACKGROUND:Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) provide paracrine support to the vascular endothelium and may also replace damaged or senescent endothelial cells. Low numbers of endothelial progenitor colony-forming units (CFU-ECs) in culture are a predictive biomarker of vascular disease. We hypothesized that the numbe...
