(A) Skin incisions were created on the dorsal surfaces of BALB/c nu/nu mice, and PBS alone, HUVECs, Alde-high EPCs, or Alde-low EPCs were injected (photographs/each condition). The effectiveness of ECs to recover tissue from ischemia was examined on day 7 following surgery without cyclosporin A treatment. (B) The necrotic regions in the 4 types of mice (n = 3) were measured. Note that the area of necrosis was smallest in the mice injected with Alde-low EPCs. Gray bar indicates PBS; striped bar, HUVECs; black bar, Alde-high EPCs; and white bar, Alde-low EPCs. **P < .01.
