Low Expression of FFAR2 in Peripheral White Blood Cells May Be a Genetic Marker for Early Diagnosis of Acute Myocardial Infarction

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2020
Objective. To find molecular markers for the diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), this research further verified the relationship between the expression level of FFAR2 gene and AMI by expanding the sample size based on the previous gene chip ...

Endothelial cell-specific loss of eNOS differentially affects endothelial function.

PLoS ONE, 2022
The endothelium maintains and regulates vascular homeostasis mainly by balancing interplay between vasorelaxation and vasoconstriction via regulating Nitric Oxide (NO) availability.

Endothelial Barrier Function.

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1989
The endothelial barrier in all organ beds allows the free exchange of water, but is restrictive to varying degrees to the transport of solutes such as albumin. For example, in the brain microvessels, the endothelial barrier restricts the transport of protein, whereas in fenestrated and continuous endothelial cells of the renal and lung endothelial ...

T-cadherin deficiency increases vascular vulnerability in T2DM through impaired NO bioactivity. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: Endothelial dysfunction plays a critical role in the development of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). T-cadherin (T-cad) has gained recognition as a regulator of endothelial cell (EC) function.

VE-cadherin and claudin-5: it takes two to tango [PDF]

, 2008
Endothelial barrier function requires the adhesive activity of VE-cadherin and claudin-5, which are key components of adherens and tight endothelial junctions, respectively.
