Vascularization is a key process in tissue engineering and regeneration and represents one of the most important issues in the field of regenerative medicine. Thus, several strategies to improve vascularization are currently under clinical evaluation. In the present study, stem cells derived from hu[for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]<br/>49.
