Researchers from Zhejiang Chinese Medical University examined the in vivo effects of epimedin C on vasculogenesis using a mouse model. The results of their study were published in The American Journal of Chinese Medicine.
Based on these results, the researchers concluded that epimedin C effectively promotes vascularization both in the BMP2-dependent bone formation model and in the 4T1 mammary tumor-bearing model by inducing the endothelial-like differentiation of C3H/10T1/2 in vivo.
