Surface expression of CXCR4 on circulating CD133(+ )progenitor cells is associated with plaque instability in subjects with carotid artery stenosis

BACKGROUND: Circulating progenitor cells (PCs) are considered to contribute to the remodeling of atherosclerotic plaques. Their surface receptor CXCR4 plays an important role in the recruitment of PCs to their target. This study compares the mobilization of PCs and their functional characteristics i...
