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

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

Effects of oxidized low density lipoprotein, lipid mediators and statins on vascular cell interactions [PDF]

, 1999
The integrin heterodimer CD11b/CD18 (alpha M beta 2, Mac-1, CR3) expressed on monocytes or polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) is a receptor for iC3b, fibrinogen, heparin, and for intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 on endothelium, crucially ...

Assessment of endothelial cell density and corneal thickness in corneal grafts an average of 5 years after penetrating keratoplasty [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND Corneal transparency is a useful indicator for corneal function. Our aim was to investigate central corneal endothelial cells and corneal thickness in transplanted corneas at an average of 5.4 years after penetrating keratoplasty ...

Itinerary of high density lipoproteins in endothelial cells [PDF]

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2016
High density lipoprotein (HDL) and its main protein component apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) have multiple anti-atherogenic functions. Some of them are exerted within the vessel wall, so that HDL needs to pass the endothelial barrier. To elucidate their itinerary through endothelial cells (ECs), we labelled ApoA-I and HDL either fluorescently or with 1.4 ...

Quantitative analysis of Weibel-Palade bodies.

PLoS ONE, 2022
Weibel Palade bodies (WPBs) are vesicles found in endothelial cells which carry the multimeric protein von Willebrand factor (VWF). As cellular confluency has been shown to influence the number of WPBs in endothelial cells, we propose to test two methods

Corneal alterations associated with pseudoexfoliation syndrome and glaucoma: A literature review [PDF]

, 2017
A systematic literature review was performed evaluating articles examining the effects of pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) and glaucoma (PEXG) on the cornea with a focus on the corneal endothelium.

Evaluation of the endothelium of the healthy equine cornea using a specular contact microscope [PDF]

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia
The corneal endothelium is important for maintaining corneal transparency. This study aimed to obtain data on endothelial cell density and the percentage of hexagonal cells in different regions of the equine corneal endothelium using contact specular ...

RETRACTED: Oxidized LDL Causes Endothelial Apoptosis by Inhibiting Mitochondrial Fusion and Mitochondria Autophagy

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-induced endothelial dysfunction is an initial step toward atherosclerosis development. Mitochondria damage correlates with ox-LDL-induced endothelial injury through an undefined mechanism. We explored the role of

Icariin attenuates endothelial-mesenchymal transition via H19/miR-148b-3p/ELF5 in ox-LDL-stimulated HUVECs

Molecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2021
Atherosclerosis is the main cause of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. Endothelial-mesenchymal transition plays an important role in atherosclerosis. Icariin has a protective effect on atherosclerosis; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In

Comparison of Endothelial Cell Loss following the Big Bubble versus the Microbubble Incision Technique during Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty in Eyes with Keratoconus

Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Introduction. Deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) is now becoming an increasingly popular surgical technique in treating corneal stromal pathologies with healthy endothelium. Several advantages of DALK over penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) have been
