During embryonic stages, vascular endothelial cells (ECs) originate from the mesoderm, at
specific extraembryonic and embryonic regions, through a process called vasculogenesis. In …

The traditional view of the vascular biology is changed by the discovery of vascular
progenitor cells in bone marrow or peripheral blood Further complexity is due to the findings …

• Introduction• The proof‐of‐concept in vivo: the cell, the read‐out and the animal model‐The
CEPC: Still a putative cell‐Do CEPCs play an essential role in vascular (patho) physiology …

New vessels in the adult have been considered to be formed not only by angiogenesis, but
also by postnatal vasculogenesis via endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). However, it is still …

The isolation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) derived from bone marrow (BM) was one
epoch-making event for the recognition of neovessel formation in adults occurring as …

Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are fibroblastoid cells capable of long-term
expansion and skeletogenic differentiation. While MSCs are known to originate from neural …

Dear Editor, Discovery of human adult endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in 1997
revolutionized the concept of postnatal vasculogenesis [1]. Endothelial colony-forming cells …

The isolation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) derived from bone marrow (BM) was an
outstanding event in the recognition of 'de novo vessel formation'in adults occurring as …

Endothelial cells (ECs) and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) play crucial roles in
supporting hematopoiesis and hematopoietic regeneration. However, whether ECs are a …

New blood vessels are formed through angiogenesis and postnatal vasculogenesis. Thus, it
is essential to identify vascular stem and progenitor cell niches and the mechanisms …
