Results of a proliferation assay performed using EPCs.
Notes: The growth curves for SPIO-labeled and unlabeled EPCs were generated from data obtained in a WST-8-based colorimetric proliferation assay. The two kinds of cells displayed similar growth rates.
Abbreviations: EPCs, endothelial progenitor cells; OD, ; SPIO, superparamagnetic iron oxide; WST-8, water-soluble tetrazolium.
