Treatment of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) used traditional Chinese medicine was introduced in this review. EPCs
the precursor cells of endothelial cells (ECs)
can participate in angiogenesis and endothelial injury after repair
which plays an important role in the incidence and development of cardiovascular disease. There is a long history for Chinese medicine to treat cardiovascular disease. It plays an important role in the different stages of disease development simultaneously. Some Chinese herbal medicines adjust the EPCs functions effectively
like influencing their mobilization
differentiation
homing
adhesion
etc. This paper reviewed Chinese medicine in the treatment of endothelial progenitor cells
to improve its application in cardiovascular field and new drug development of traditional Chinese medicine. The adjustment of Chinese medicine on EPCs plays a very important role in disease treatment.
