New molecular mediators in tumor angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and progression. It has been demonstrated that tumor growth beyond a size 1 to 2 mm3 requires the induction of new vessels.

Substrate stiffness and VE-cadherin mechano-transduction coordinate to regulate endothelial monolayer integrity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The vascular endothelium is subject to diverse mechanical cues that regulate vascular endothelial barrier function. In addition to rigidity sensing through integrin adhesions, mechanical perturbations such as changes in fluid shear stress can also ...

Endothelial Cell Heterogeneity [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2003
To review recent advances in the field of endothelial cell heterogeneity, and to apply this knowledge to an understanding of site-specific vasculopathy, including acute lung injury.Published research and review articles in the English language related to endothelial cell biology and endothelial cell heterogeneity.The results of published studies have ...

Endothelial cell seeding

open access: yesJournal of British Surgery, 1991
Abstract Endothelial cell seeding is a technique that has developed over the past 15 years in response to the need for a high performance synthetic vascular graft. This review details our present knowledge of seeding and examines the various problems that have hampered its introduction into clinical practice.

Endosome-to-Plasma Membrane Recycling of VEGFR2 Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Regulates Endothelial Function and Blood Vessel Formation

open access: yesCells, 2014
Rab GTPases are implicated in endosome-to-plasma membrane recycling, but how such membrane traffic regulators control vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2/KDR) dynamics and function are not well understood.

Activation of the NFκB signaling pathway in IL6+CSF3+ vascular endothelial cells promotes the formation of keloids

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Background: Keloid is a disease caused by abnormal proliferation of skin fibres, the causative mechanism of which remains unclear.Method: In this study, endothelial cells of keloids were studied using scRNAseq combined with bulk-RNAseq data from keloids.

The LOX-1 Scavenger Receptor and Its Implications in the Treatment of Vascular Disease

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2012
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death. The disease is due to atherosclerosis which is characterized by lipid and fat accumulation in arterial blood vessel walls. A key causative event is the accumulation of oxidised low density lipoprotein

Scavenger Receptor Structure and Function in Health and Disease

open access: yesCells, 2015
Scavenger receptors (SRs) are a ‘superfamily’ of membrane-bound receptors that were initially thought to bind and internalize modified low-density lipoprotein (LDL), though it is currently known to bind to a variety of ligands including endogenous ...

Contribution of Piezo2 to endothelium-dependent pain. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BackgroundWe evaluated the role of a mechanically-gated ion channel, Piezo2, in mechanical stimulation-induced enhancement of hyperalgesia produced by the pronociceptive vasoactive mediator endothelin-1, an innocuous mechanical stimulus-induced ...

VEGF-A isoforms program differential VEGFR2 signal transduction, trafficking and proteolysis

open access: yesBiology Open, 2016
Vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A) binding to the receptor tyrosine kinase VEGFR2 triggers multiple signal transduction pathways, which regulate endothelial cell responses that control vascular development.
