Metformin improves circulating endothelial cells and endothelial progenitor cells in type 1 diabetes: MERIT study

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology, 2016
BackgroundType 1 diabetes is associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD). Decreased endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) number plays a pivotal role in reduced endothelial repair and development of CVD. We aimed to determine if cardioprotective

Microvesicles and exosomes: new players in metabolic and cardiovascular disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The past decade has witnessed an exponential increase in the number of publications referring to extracellular vesicles (EVs). For many years considered to be extracellular debris, EVs are now seen as novel mediators of endocrine signalling via cell-to ...

The roles of endoglin gene in cerebrovascular diseases. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Endoglin (ENG, also known as CD105) is a transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) associated receptor and is required for both vasculogenesis and angiogenesis.

Sirt1 expression is associated with CD31 expression in blood cells from patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Cigarette smoke induced oxidative stress has been shown to reduce silent information regulator 1 (Sirt1) levels in lung tissue from smokers and patients with COPD patients.

Circulating endothelial cells are increased in chronic myeloid leukemia blast crisis [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2015
We measured circulating endothelial precursor cells (EPCs), activated circulating endothelial cells (aCECs), and mature circulating endothelial cells (mCECs) using four-color multiparametric flow cytometry in the peripheral blood of 84 chronic myeloid ...

In vitro Flow Adhesion Assay for Analyzing Shear-resistant Adhesion of Metastatic Cancer Cells to Endothelial Cells

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2016
Hematogenous metastasis is a primary cause of mortality from metastatic cancer. The shear-resistant adhesion of circulating tumor cells to the vascular endothelial cell surface under blood flow is an essential step in cell extravasation and further ...

Caspases and p38 MAPK regulate endothelial cell adhesiveness for mesenchymal stem cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Mesenchymal stem cells natively circulating or delivered into the blood stream home to sites of injury. The mechanism of mesenchymal stem cell homing to sites of injury is poorly understood.

Endothelial progenitor cells and burn injury - exploring the relationship. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Burn wounds result in varying degrees of soft tissue damage that are typically graded clinically. Recently a key participant in neovascularization, the endothelial progenitor cell, has been the subject of intense cardiovascular research to explore ...

Long-term high fat feeding of rats results in increased numbers of circulating microvesicles with pro-inflammatory effects on endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Obesity and type 2 diabetes lead to dramatically increased risks of atherosclerosis and CHD. Multiple mechanisms converge to promote atherosclerosis by increasing endothelial oxidative stress and up-regulating expression of pro-inflammatory molecules ...

Clinical value of circulating endothelial cells and of soluble CD146 levels in patients undergoing surgery for non-small cell lung cancer

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 2014
Background:Previous studies indicate that endothelial injury, as demonstrated by the presence of circulating endothelial cells (CECs), may predict clinical outcome in cancer patients.
