From the Emory Clinical Cardiovascular Research Institute Atlanta, GA (A.S.T., M.H., M.R., Z.A., A.A., P.B.S., H.M.-K., S.S.H., J.H.K., W.T.O., M.L.T., A.J.G., N.S., R.E.H., M.M.G., M.O., B.K., N.A., Y.-A.K., I.H., V.V., A.A.Q.)
Rationale: Circulating progenitor cells (CPCs) mobilize in response to ischemic injury, but their predictive value remains unknown in acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Objective: We aimed to investigate the number of CPCs in ACS compared with those with stable coronary artery disease (CAD), relationship between bone marrow PCs and CPCs, and whether CPC counts predict mortality in patients with ACS.
Methods And Results: In 2028 patients, 346 had unstable angina, 183 had an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and the remaining 1499 patients had stable CAD.
