Positive effect of eplerenone treatment on endothelial progenitor cells in patients with chronic heart failure
Background: Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are known to play a significant role in reendothelialization and vascular repair. Recently, a mineralocorticoid receptor was demonstrated to be expressed by EPCs. The study aimed to evaluate a potential influence of eplerenone treatment on the total nu...
