Endogenous Endothelial Progenitor Cells Participate in Neovascularization via CXCR4/SDF-1 axis and Improve Outcome After Stroke.

CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggested that endogenous EPCs participated in the neovascularization via CXCR4/SDF-1 axis after pMCAO and mobilizing endogenous EPCs could be a treatment alternative for stroke. PMID: 24581269 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
