Mobilization of CD133+ progenitor cells in patients with acute cerebral infarction.

Mobilization of CD133+ progenitor cells in patients with acute cerebral infarction.

Progenitor cells (PCs) contribute to the endogenous repair mechanism after ischemic events. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) as part of the acute inflammatory reaction may enhance PC mobilization. Also, statins are supposed to alter number and function of circulating PCs. We aimed to investigate PC mobilization...
