Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) may be defined as adherent cells derived from peripheral blood- or bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells demonstrating acLDL uptake and isolectin-binding capacity. The number of circulating EPCs inversely correlates with the number of cardiovascular risk factors a
Characterization of the spontaneous immune response that frequently occurs in tumor-bearing animals, as well as immunization using dendritic cells pulsed with tumor antigens, suggests that a limiting factor of the tumor-specific immune response may be a defect in the co-stimulatory signal that is re
