Figure 1 Schematic diagram showing the direct participation of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) to induce angiogenesis and the paracrine effect of shear-thinning hydrogel (STG) containing endothelial progenitor cells to increase retention, proliferation, migration, and differentiation of progenitor cells in the infarct zone, resulting in increased left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction and contractility and thus inducing protective and regenerative effects on cardiomyocytes. HA, Hyaluronic acid; ECM, extracellular matrix.
