Resveratrol Improves Tube Formation in AGE-Induced Late Endothelial Progenitor Cells by Suppressing Syndecan-4 Shedding

Dysfunction of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) contributes to cardiovascular complications in diabetes, and resveratrol has been shown to improve EPC functions. Syndecan-4 (Synd4), a cell surface heparin sulfate proteoglycan, has been shown to promote neovascularization. Thus, the present study...
