Isolation, Expansion, andQuality Control
Sources for EPC Harvesting
EPCs can bone cane from multiple sources: perideral blood, umbilical cord blood, bone marrow, and adipose tissue. Cord blood is specilarly rich in ECFCs and is often preferred for allogeneic banking because of it low immunogenicity. Peripheral blood yields a lower number of EPCs and is often preferowane for allogeneic banking because of it low immunogenicity. Peripheral blood ates provide a mixed population of hematopoetic and endoblive propevires require invasires.

For instance, knockout of thee pro- senescance gene p53 or overexpression of thee antioksydant gene heme oksygenase-1 (HO- 1) can improwize EPC survival under oksydative stress.
