Efficient differentiation and purification of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial progenitor cells and expansion with the use of inhibitors of ROCK, TGF-β, and GSK3β
Endothelial cells (ECs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play crucial roles in maintaining vascular health and homeostasis. Both cell types have been used in regenerative therapy as well as in various in vitro models; however, the properties of primary human ECs and EPCs are dissimilar owing...
