Endothelial cells and endothelial progenitor cells in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis
European Journal of Rheumatology, 2020 Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a connective tissue disease characterized by excessive fibrosis, microvasculopathy, and autoimmunity. Endothelial cell (EC) injury and subsequent endothelial cell dysfunction is believed to be an initial event that eventually leads to a vicious pathogenic cycle.

Endothelial cells and coagulation [PDF]
Cell and Tissue Research, 2021 AbstractEndothelial cells form a monolayer, which lines blood vessels. They are crucially involved in maintaining blood fluidity and providing controlled vascular hemostasis at sites of injury. Thereby endothelial cells facilitate multiple mechanisms, including both procoagulant and anticoagulant, which must be kept in balance.

Endothelial Cell Metabolism [PDF]
Physiological Reviews, 2018 Endothelial cells (ECs) are more than inert blood vessel lining material. Instead, they are active players in the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) both in health and (life-threatening) diseases. Recently, a new concept arose by which EC metabolism drives angiogenesis in parallel to well-established angiogenic growth factors (e.g., vascular

Infections and endothelial cells [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research, 2003 Systemic infection by various pathogens interacts with the endothelium and may result in altered coagulation, vasculitis and atherosclerosis. Endothelium plays a role in the initiation and regulation of both coagulation and fibrinolysis. Exposure of endothelial cells may lead to rapid activation of coagulation via tissue factor (TF) expression and the ...

Endothelial cell junctions [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 1975 In the course of a freeze-cleave study on intercellular junctions in the regenerating rat liver, we observed an unusual array of intramembranous particles located in regions of contact between endothelial cells lining the hepatic sinusoids. These arrays were characterized by an accumulation of particles which resembled a zonula occludens in their ...

Angiogenin and endothelial cells [PDF]
, 1992 Antiogenin is a potent blood vessel-inducing polypeptide that has a unique ribonucleolytic activity. Initially identified from tumor cells conditioned medium through its ability to induce neovascularization in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane assay [1], angiogenin has also been purified from normal plasma [2] which suggested that it might be ...

Isolation of equine endothelial cells and life cell angiogenesis assay [PDF]
, 2014 Arterial or venous thromboses are frequent clinical complications with the risk of fatal progression. Recent studies suggest the disruption of angiogenesis in the course of thrombus resolution as the underlying pathomechanism.

High Glucose, But Not Testosterone, Increases Platelet Aggregation Mediated by Endothelial Cells [PDF]
, 2015 Endothelial cells inhibit platelet aggregation by releasing thromboregulators, such as prostacyclin and nitric oxide. Male subject is a traditional risk factor for cardiovascular diseases.

Surface modification of hydrophobic polymers for improvement of endothelial cell-surface interactions [PDF]
, 1992 The aim of this study is to improve the interaction of endothelial cells with polymers used in vascular prostheses. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE; Teflon) films were treated by means of nitrogen and oxygen plasmas.
