VEGF pretreatment increases EPC homing via Cx43. a Significant neointimal formation was detected on days 7 and 28 after injury. Scale bar = 100 μm. b VEGF pretreatment promoted the homing of EPCs. However, the silencing of Cx43 attenuated EPC homing. Scale bar = 100 μm. White arrows represent homing EPCs. c Quantitative analysis of EPC homing (n = 3). *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01
