«Humans risked limb ischemia in exchange for bipedal walking: A detailed comparison of mouse and
human blood vessels with three - dimensional imaging.»
Our data confirms that endothelial progenitors obtained from
adult human blood vessels can be expanded in vitro under xenoprotein - free conditions, for potential use in endothelialization of small diameter ePTFE grafts.
High amounts of antioxidants that stimulate the production of nitric oxide which lessens the effects of stress
on human blood vessels.
The team at the Institute of Food Research took cells found
in human blood vessels and treated them with low concentrations of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) from the leaves of tea plant and procyanidin from apples - an amount equivalent to what would be found in the bloodstream after eating normal, dietary amounts of apples or green tea.
