<p>The present invention relates generally to the treatment and prophylaxis of events, conditions and diseases of the systemic vasculature and treatment and prophylaxis of infection by pathogenic agents. Agents are contemplated which enhance levels of stem cells and/or facilitate the angiogenic or vasculogenic capability of stem cells or their precursors or early committed cells of a particular cell lineage or to mobilize stem cells to thereby promote repair and maintenance of elements and components of the systemic vasculature. A method is also provided to activate hypoxic gene programming in target tissues to induce angiogenesis and recruit progenitor cells to that site. Still further, a method to facilitate enhancement of immune function is also provided. Agents and pharmaceutical compositions including functional foods and specialized drug delivery devices useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of events, conditions and disease of the systemic vasculature and to enhance the immune system are contemplated.</p> |
