Fresh data on diabetes are presented in the report 'Decreased mobilization of endothelial progenitor cells contributes to impaired neovascularization in diabetes.' "1. Circulating bone marrow (BM)-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play an important role in neovascularization," researchers in Nanjing, People's Republic of China report (see also Diabetes Prevention).

"In the present study, we investigated the mechanisms underlying the reduction in circulating EPCs in a mouse model of diabetes induced by streptozotocin. 2. Compared with non-diabetic controls, diabetic mice had reduced circulating EPCs (0.59 [+ or -]0.11 vs 0.94 [+ or -]0.21%, respectively; ...
