For more than a decade, endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have been implicated in
cardiovascular homeostasis. EPCs are believed to reside within the bone marrow in close …

Simple Summary The interactions between cancer cells and the surrounding blood vessels
and peripheral nerves are critical in all the phases of tumor development. Accordingly …

Background—The aim of this prospective, randomized study was to examine whether
additional school exercise lessons would result in improved peak oxygen uptake (primary …

OBJECTIVE: Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is characterized by low-grade inflammation and
confers an increased risk for cardiovascular disease. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are …

Circulating bone-marrow-derived cells, named endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), are
capable of maintaining, generating, and replacing terminally differentiated cells within their …

The association of obesity with noncommunicable diseases, such as cardiovascular
complications and diabetes, is considered a major threat to the management of health care …

Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs): The name embodies years of research and clinical
expectations, but where are we now? Do these cells really represent the El Dorado of …

Objective Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) correlate negatively with obesity.
Previous studies have shown that exercise significantly restores circulating EPC levels in …

Background Obesity increases cardiovascular disease risk by impairing angiogenesis,
primarily through dysfunction of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). METRNL, a recently …

Endothelial dysfunction, which is considered the functional equivalent of a disrupted
balance between endothelial injury and repair, precedes overt atherosclerosis by many …
