Dynamic changes of vascular endothelial growth factor and angiopoietin-1 in association with circulating endothelial progenitor cells after severe traumatic brain injury.

Abstract

Our results suggest that the increased VEGF and Ang-1 are closely related to increase in circulating EPCs in response to severe TBI, which may be needed for vascular repairs after severe TBI.
