Endothelin-1 Production by Normal Human Cultured Keratinocytes and its Regulation

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1994
The possibility that cultured keratinocytes produce endothelins were investigated. The results showed that cultured keratinocytes derived from normal human skin produce endothelin-1. Moreover, keratinocyte endothelin-1 production was completely inhibited

The Kallikrein-Kinin-System in Experimental Chagas Disease: A Paradigm to Investigate the Impact of Inflammatory Edema on GPCR-mediated pathways of Host Cell Invasion by Trypanosoma cruzi

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Chronic chagasic myocarditis (CCM) depends on Trypanosoma cruzi persistence in the myocardium. Studies of the proteolytic mechanisms governing host/parasite balance in peripheral sites of T.

Endothelin-3 like immunoreactivity in plasma of patients with cirrhosis of the liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
A highly specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay (RIA) has been established for determination of endothelin-3 like immunoreactivity in human plasma to investigate its possible role in hemodynamic alterations due to liver disease.

Bioengineering facets of the tumor microenvironment in 3D tumor models: insights into cellular, biophysical and biochemical interactions

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The tumor microenvironment is a dynamic, multifaceted complex system of interdependent cellular, biochemical, and biophysical components. Three‐dimensional in vitro models of the tumor microenvironment enable a better understanding of these interactions and their impact on cancer progression and therapeutic resistance.

Tetramethylenedisulfotetramine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Tetramethylenedisulfotetramine (CAS 80-12-6), commonly referred to as TETS, was first synthesized in 1933 as a condensation product of sulfamide and formaldehyde. TETS was subsequently used as a rodenticide until banned worldwide in 1991.

Endothelin and restenosis [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 1998
Time for primary review 31 days Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA) was first introduced into the therapy of patients with coronary artery stenosis in the late seventies [1]. In the two decades since, this method has become standard therapy for patients suffering from all forms of coronary artery disease.

Bioengineering a Patient‐Derived Vascularized Lung Tumor‐on‐Chip Model to Decipher Immunomodulation by the Endothelium

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Most in vitro cancer models lack cellular diversity, functional complexity, and clinical relevance. This work highlights the generation of an innovative dynamic tetraculture with autologous patient‐derived cells within a vascularized tumor‐on‐chip, as well as the recapitulation of endothelial anergy features induced by the tumor microenvironment ...

Nanostructured 316L Stainless Steel Stent Surfaces Improve Corrosion Resistance, and Enhance Endothelization and Hemocompatibility

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
This study investigates the impact of nanostructured surface modification on corrosion resistance, HUVEC functions, and platelet interactions of 316L SS for cardiovascular stents. Nanostructured surfaces enhanced HUVEC proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis‐related gene expression while reducing platelet adhesion and hemolysis.

Roles of Astrocytic Endothelin ETB Receptor in Traumatic Brain Injury

open access: yesCells, 2023
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an intracranial injury caused by accidents, falls, or sports. The production of endothelins (ETs) is increased in the injured brain.

Influence of Inflammatory Mediators and Cytokines on Human Melanocyte Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The fully differentiated human melanocyte functions as a necessary and integral part of the epidermis, synthesizing melanin in intracellular organelles and transferring these pigment-containing organelles to surrounding keratino-cytes.
