Endothelial cells and hyperthermia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 1994
Most radiation oncologists are aware of the effects of clinical hyperthermia on neoplastic cells. Its effects on blood vessels, however, are not as well recognized. Yet, since the 1960s a number of investigators have described and categorized the effects of hyperthermia on microvessels (in vivo), and on cultured endothelial cells (EC) (in vitro).

Downregulation of ETS rescues diabetes-induced reduction of endothelial progenitor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background Transplantation of vasculogenic progenitor cells (VPC) improves neovascularization after ischemia. However, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus show a reduced VPC number and impaired functional activity. Previously, we demonstrated that p38

The Effect of Composite Pig Islet-Human Endothelial Cell Grafts on the Instant Blood-Mediated Inflammatory Reaction

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2009
Instant blood-mediated inflammatory reaction (IBMIR) causes rapid islet loss in portal vein islet transplantation. Endothelial cells are known to protect against complement-mediated lysis and activation of coagulation. We tested composite pig islet–human

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Mycolactone-dependent depletion of endothelial cell thrombomodulin is strongly associated with fibrin deposition in Buruli ulcer lesions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A well-known histopathological feature of diseased skin in Buruli ulcer (BU) is coagulative necrosis caused by the Mycobacterium ulcerans macrolide exotoxin mycolactone.

Japanese encephalitis virus-associated human microglia induce cell death of human microvascular endothelial cells in receptor-independent infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
IntroductionThe neurotropic virus Japanese encephalitis virus invades the human central nervous system, inducing neuroinflammation and further disruption of the blood-brain barrier.

Endothelial senescence and microRNA

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2012
Cellular senescence occurs when cells lose the ability to divide and proliferate. Endothelial cell senescence is associated with vascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis. In this review, I discuss the factors affecting endothelial cell senescence. Then

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.
