The effects of inactivity and exercise training on established and novel cardiovascular risk
factors are relatively modest and do not account for the impact of inactivity and exercise on …

In this review we consider the effects of endogenous and pharmacological levels of nitrite
under conditions of hypoxia. In humans, the nitrite anion has long been considered as …

Background—Although numerous studies have reported that cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is
associated with reduced mortality after myocardial infarction, less is known about its …

There is an increasing evidence that endothelial dysfunction and vascular wall inflammation
are present in all stages of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis does not have to necessarily …

Historically, revascularization of ischemic tissue was believed to occur through the migration
and proliferation of endothelial cells in nearby tissues; however, evidence accumulated in …

Physical inactivity is a major risk factor for the development of obesity and other
cardiovascular (CV) disease (CVD). Vascular endothelial dysfunction is a key event in the …

For more than a decade, endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) have been implicated in
cardiovascular homeostasis. EPCs are believed to reside within the bone marrow in close …

Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) could
facilitate the reendothelialization of injured arteries by replacing the dysfunctional …

This review aimed to examine the effects of exercise training on mobilization of endothelial
progenitor cells (EPCs) in patients with cardiovascular disease and to discuss the possible …

Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) contribute to vascular repair and their
monitoring could have prognostic clinical value. Exercise is often prescribed for the …
