The research development of endothelial progenitor cells

Xue Li-jing

Abstract

Endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) is a kind of directional cell that is able to differentiate to endothelial cell. The role of EPC is associated not only with vasculogenesis during embryonic development but also with physiological organ maintenance and angiogenesis during postnatal and adult period. There is a good clinical therapeutic prospective use for EPC in the treatment of ischemia diseases and inhibition of tumor angiogenesis.
