Low Ethanol Concentrations Promote Endothelial Progenitor Cell Capacity and Reparative Function

Figure 4

Effect of ethanol on ECFC proliferation rate. ECFCs were incubated in the absence or presence of ethanol (0.5% or 1% ethanol) in EGM +5% () FBS. Cell numbers were counted, and population doubling time was calculated after 24 h for at least 4 independent experiments.
