Popis: BackgroundThe response of progenitor cells (PCs) to transient myocardial ischemia in patients with coronary artery disease remains unknown. We aimed to investigate the PC response to exercise‐induced myocardial ischemia (ExMI) and compare it to flow mismatch during pharmacological stress testing. Methods and ResultsA total of 356 patients with stable coronary artery disease underwent 99mTc‐sestamibi myocardial perfusion imaging during exercise (69%) or pharmacological stress (31%). CD34+ and CD34+/chemokine (C‐X‐C motif) receptor 4 PCs were enumerated by flow cytometry. Change in PC count was compared between patients with and without myocardial ischemia using linear regression models. Vascular endothelial growth factor and stromal‐derived factor‐1α were quantified. Mean age was 63±9 years; 76% were men. The incidence of ExMI was 31% and 41% during exercise and pharmacological stress testing, respectively. Patients with ExMI had a significant decrease in CD34+/chemokine (C‐X‐C motif) receptor 4 (−18%, P=0.01) after stress that was inversely correlated with the magnitude of ischemia (r=−0.19, P=0.003). In contrast, patients without ExMI had an increase in CD34+/chemokine (C‐X‐C motif) receptor 4 (14.7%, P=0.02), and those undergoing pharmacological stress had no change. Plasma vascular endothelial growth factor levels increased (15%, P
