Key Points

This research aims to characterize two types of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and their distinct contributions to neovasculogenesis.
Identified and characterized two types of endothelial progenitor cells from adult peripheral blood.
Assessed their roles in neovasculogenesis using specific markers and assays.
Two distinct types of EPCs were identified, each showing different characteristics.
Variations in the contribution to neovasculogenesis were observed between the two types of EPCs.

Abstract

We found two types of EPC from a source of adult peripheral blood that might have different roles in neovasculogenesis based on the identified differences.
