Human macrophages and monocyte-derived dendritic cells stimulate the proliferation of endothelial cells through midkine production.
The cytokine midkine (MK) is a growth factor that is involved in different physiological processes including tissue repair, inflammation, the development of different types of cancer and the proliferation of endothelial cells. The production of MK by primary human macrophages and monocyte-derived de...
