Endothelial progenitor cells: Origin and role of angiogenesis in cardiovascular diseases

Abstract: Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are the cells that play a key role in maintaining vascular integrity and repairing endothelial damage. It has been shown that EPCs can differentiate into mature endothelial cells and are also capable of producing various regulatory growth factors and cytokines. There are many studies focusing on the associations between coronary artery disease and circulating EPCs. However, it is still challenging to use EPCs for the development of diagnostic and treatment algorithms in card… Show more

“…SDF-1 accumulation in the plasma stimulates CXCR4 + cell mobilization from the bone marrow, including hematopoietic stem cells and EPCs, which express CXCR4 as a receptor for SDF-1. The SDF-1 and CXCR4 interaction also stimulates the recruitment and retention of stem cells in ischemic areas [13,[17][18][19][20]. Another chemotactic factor, MCP-1, mediates monocytic EPC attachment to the damaged endothelium, which is accompanied by their differentiation into cells expressing endothelial markers (Tie2, CD31 and VE-cadherin) and the inhibition of vascular intimal hyperplasia [21].…”

“…The VEGF-A content in the blood from the coronary sinus exceeded that in the peripheral blood of CHD patients of both groups, likely reflecting the induction of angiogenesis under ischemic conditions (Table 2). VEGF-A binds to VEGFR1 and VEGFR2, stimulating EPC proliferation and differentiation into endothelial cells and the formation of tubular structures and increasing vascular wall permeability, and inhibits cardiomyocyte apoptosis [13,[26][27][28]. Given that hypoxia increases VEGFR1 expression [27], which is a decoy receptor for VEGF-A, may inhibit angiogenesis [28] and activate MMP-9 secretion from vascular myocytes [29], patients with ICMP, due to chronic hypoxia, may present with an attenuation of the interaction between VEGF-A and VEGFR2.…”
