However, EPCs migration is greatly reduced in the patient with Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Allicin and Vitamin C are hypothesized to improve EPCs migration due to its antioxidant properties. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To investigate the effect of Allicin and its combination with Vitamin C in EPCs migration of CAD patients. &lt;strong&gt;Material and Method:&lt;/strong&gt; Mononuclear cells were isolated from CAD patients and cultured on fibronectin-coated plates with colony-forming unit Hill medium. The cells were divided into untreated (control), Allicin treatment (dose 100 mcg/ml, 200 mcg/ml, 400 mcg/ ml), and each dose of Allicin combined with 250 mcg/mL of Vitamin C. EPCs migration was assessed with Transwell Migration Assay Kit and evaluated by using statistical tests. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;This research shows that EPC migration was significantly higher in the treatment. Allicin at all dose (dose 100 mcg/ml, 200 mcg/ml, 400 mcg/ml) and its combination with 250 mcg/mL of vitamin C compared to untreated group (&lt;em&gt;p&lt;/em&gt;&amp;lt;0.05). Allicin increase EPCs migration in a dosedependent manner. However, the only combination of 400 mcg/ml Allicin with 250 mcg/mL of vitamin C which has significantly higher EPCs migration compared to Allicin treatment alone. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Allicin improves EPCs migration in a dose-dependent manner. Improvement of the migration only observed on the Allicin dose 400 mcg/ml with Vitamin C.&lt;/p&gt;
