Gap-junctional coupling between neutrophils and endothelial cells [PDF]
Communication between leukocytes and endothelial cells is crucial for inflammatory reactions. Paracrine cross-talk and outside-in signaling (via adhesion molecules) have been characterized as communication pathways to date.

High-density lipoprotein endocytosis in endothelial cells
To describe the way stations of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) uptake and its lipid exchange in endothelial cells in vitro and in vivo.A combination of fluorescence microscopy using novel fluorescent cholesterol surrogates and electron microscopy was used to analyze HDL endocytosis in great detail in primary human endothelial cells. Further, HDL uptake

Endothelial cell division in angiogenic sprouts of differing cellular architecture [PDF]
The vasculature of the zebrafish trunk is composed of tubes with different cellular architectures. Unicellular tubes form their lumen through membrane invagination and transcellular cell hollowing, whereas multicellular vessels become lumenized through a

Endothelial Piezo1 sustains muscle capillary density and contributes to physical activity
Piezo1 forms mechanically activated nonselective cation channels that contribute to endothelial response to fluid flow. Here we reveal an important role in the control of capillary density.

Unraveling the influence of endothelial cell density on VEGF-A signaling [PDF]
AbstractVascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF) is the master determinant for the activation of the angiogenic program leading to the formation of new blood vessels to sustain solid tumor growth and metastasis. VEGF specific binding to VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) triggers different signaling pathways, including phospholipase C-γ (PLC-γ) and Akt ...

Comparison of the findings of endothelial specular microscopy before and after corneal cross-linking
Background: To report the long-term findings of corneal cross-linking (CXL) with riboflavin drops on the corneal endothelial cell. Materials and Methods: In this prospective non-randomized study, we aim to assess the long-term safety of CXL on the ...

Does Corneal Hysteresis Correlate with Endothelial Cell Density? [PDF]
Our aim was to determine if there is a correlation between corneal biomechanical properties, endothelial cell count, and corneal pachymetry in healthy corneas.Ninety-two eyes of all subjects underwent complete ocular examination, including intraocular pressure measurement by Goldmann applanation tonometer, objective refraction, and slit-lamp ...
