Peptide Bbeta(15-42) preserves endothelial barrier function in shock [PDF]

, 2009
Loss of vascular barrier function causes leak of fluid and proteins into tissues, extensive leak leads to shock and death. Barriers are largely formed by endothelial cell-cell contacts built up by VE-cadherin and are under the control of RhoGTPases. Here

Linoleic acid-induced endothelial activation

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
Hypertriglyceridemia, an important risk factor of atherosclerosis, is associated with increased circulating free fatty acids. Research to date indicates that linoleic acid (LA), the major fatty acid in the American diet, may be atherogenic by activating ...

TRPV4 channel activation induces the transition of venous and arterial endothelial cells toward a pro‐inflammatory phenotype

Physiological Reports, 2021
The Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) of endothelial cells contributes to many important functions including the regulation of Ca2+ homeostasis, cell volume, endothelial barrier permeability, and smooth muscle tone.

Increased endothelial biomarkers are associated with HIV antiretroviral therapy and C-reactive protein among a African rural population in Limpopo Province, South Africa

Frontiers in Public Health, 2022
In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) endothelial dysfunction (ED) and chronic inflammation in the HIV-positive adults population who are on highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) are not fully explored.

Novel Biomarkers in Vascular Diseases: From Discovery to Clinical Translation

Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
Endothelial activation as well as dysfunction is a major factor in atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disorders, and cardiorenal syndrome. Endothelial dysfunction is additionally associated with metabolic syndrome as well as type II diabetes.

Leucine-Rich α-2-Glycoprotein 1 Suppresses Endothelial Cell Activation Through ADAM10-Mediated Shedding of TNF-α Receptor

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Elevated serum concentrations of leucine-rich α-2-glycoprotein (LRG1) have been reported in patients with inflammatory, autoimmune, and cardiovascular diseases. This study aims to investigate the role of LRG1 in endothelial activation.

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated
