The Effects of Magnetically Labeled Rat Spleen-originated Endothelial Progenitor Cells on Growth of Glioma in Vivo

Both magnetic resonance imaging and immunohistochemical findings confirmed that exogenous EPCs could not affect the biologic behavior of C6 glioma cells in vivo through a paracrine effect or by direct cellular interaction. Therefore, exogenous EPCs could not exert significant promoting effects on glioma growth.
