FIG. 4. Loss of circadian release of diabetic CD34+ CACs.

FIG. 4

Peripheral blood was collected every 2 h for a total of 24 h from (A) control (n=4) and (B) diabetic (n=8) subjects and was analyzed for the number of CD34+ CACs by flow cytomtery. (A) In control subjects, there is a clear peak of circulating CD34+ CACs that occurred in the middle of the night. (B) Rhythmic CD34+ CACs release pattern was blunted in Type 2 diabetic patients. The dash line is the model fitted curve for individual patients and bold curve is the fitted curve for population.
