The effect of high-dose d-glucose on the tube-forming capacity of hCPCs. (A) The capacity of hCPCs exposed to high doses of d-glucose for 72 h to form angiogenesis-like networks in vitro was analyzed using a Matrigel tube formation assay. hCPCs treated with high doses of d-glucose for 72 h showed markedly diminished tube formation capacity. (B) Total mitochondrial tube lengths. Results are presented as means ± SD. **p<0.01 vs. control.
