Endothelial progenitor cells mobilisation after percutaneous coronary intervention: a pilot study

Abstract: Baseline EPC levels are related with the extension of the lesion and stenosis whereas the kinetics of EPC mobilization showed to be related with C-reactive protein concentration. Endothelial activation seems to occur in response to EPC mobilization or vascular damage by PCI.

“…The authors conclude that TGF-β could be a novel marker of AMI in general and STEMI in specific and so could conceivably enter routine practice, especially in accident and emergency. The cardiology theme was continued with the work of Santas-Alvarez et al [32], who examined the dynamics of endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) levels in patients undergoing stent placement within a coronary artery. Levels of these cells (as defined by fluorescence flow cytometry and surface markers CD45, CD34, KDR and CD133), whose function is to replace effete and dead endothelial cells in the coronary circulation, correlated with the extent of the disease in the affected arteries.…”

“…e change of peripheral blood EPCs number after PCI is still controversial. Previous studies have shown that the number of peripheral EPCs after PCI increased compared with that before PCI [39][40][41].…”
