Rosuvastatin enhances angiogenesis via eNOS-dependent mobilization of endothelial progenitor cells.
Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (circEPCs) of bone marrow (BM) origin contribute to postnatal neovascularization and represent a potential therapeutic target for ischemic disease. Statins are beneficial for ischemia disease and have been implicated to increase neovascularization via mechani...
