Methods EPCs were isolated from human umbilical cord blood by density gradient centrifugation. U87 glioblastoma cells were implanted into the brain of nude mice using a stereotactic technique for replicating an orthotopically implanted human glioblastoma model. AtOn 7 days after U87 cell implantation, EPCs were injected into tumor-bearing mice via their tail veins.Incorporation and recruitment of endothelial progenitor cells in neovascularization of malignant glioma in vivo were examined respectively by confocal laser scanning microscopy on days 7,14,21 after EPCs transplantation,and the expansion of the tumor mass were observed. Results Gliomas were formed in all the injected nude mice. The number of EPCs incorporated and recruited into newly formed tumor vessels at days 14,21 after EPCs tr
