Potential role of endothelial progenitor cells in the pathophysiology of heart failure: clinical implications and perspectives.
Endothelial dysfunction is thought to play a major role in the development and clinical complications of heart failure. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have been shown to provide an endogenous repair mechanism to counteract detrimental risk factor-induced effects and replace dysfunctional endoth...
