E-selectin mediated adhesion and migration of endothelial colony forming cells is enhanced by SDF-1α/CXCR4.

E-selectin mediated adhesion and migration of endothelial colony forming cells is enhanced by SDF-1α/CXCR4.

OBJECTIVE: Endothelial-colony forming cells (ECFCs) can be readily expanded from human umbilical cord blood and can facilitate repair of endothelial injury. E-selectin and SDF-1α are produced following endothelial injury and can regulate endothelial progenitor homing. Mechanisms of vascular repair s...
