The presence of kinase-insert domain-containing receptor (KDR) on circulating CD34+ cells is assumed to be indicative for the potential of these cells to support vascular maintenance and repair. However, in bone marrow and in granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-mobilized peripheral blood, less than 0.5% of CD34+ cells co-express KDR. Therefore, we studied whether CD34+/KDR+ cells are generated in the peripheral circulation.
