Zoledronate attenuates angiogenic effects of angiotensin II-stimulated endothelial progenitor cells via RhoA and MAPK signaling.
BACKGROUND: New vessel formation plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of neovascular-related diseases. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) were found to contribute to neovascular-related diseases and interference with EPC neovascularization may be a novel target for these diseases. Zoledronate (...
