Abstract
Endothelial progenitor cells are the precursor cells of the endothelial cells.Under certain physiological and pathological conditions,they flow with the blood to an appropriate organization,where they differentiate into endothelial cells,and can form further blood vessels.The effect of endothelial progenitor cells' participating in angiogenesis,may have great significance for wound healing,the treatment of ischemic disease and cancer targeted therapy.It has prospects for broad application in clinical practice.
