A Role for the Endothelium in Vascular Calcification [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2013 Rationale: Vascular calcification is a regulated process that involves osteoprogenitor cells and frequently complicates common vascular disease, such as atherosclerosis and diabetic vasculopathy. However, it is not clear whether the vascular endothelium has a role in contributing osteoprogenitor ...

Nanomechanics of vascular endothelium [PDF]
Cell and Tissue Research, 2014 The mechanical characteristics of endothelial cells reveal four distinct compartments, namely glycocalyx, cell cortex, cytoplasm and nucleus. There is accumulating evidence that endothelial nanomechanics of these individual compartments control vascular physiology.

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019 Background Vascular endothelial cell (EC) alignment in the direction of flow is an adaptive response that protects against aortic diseases, such as atherosclerosis. The Rho GTPases are known to regulate this alignment.
