Endothelium-Dependent Vasodilation and Nitric Oxide Bioavailability in Premenopausal Females [PDF]
Endothelial function is an indicator and predictor of cardiovascular health. Mechanisms of endothelial function in premenopausal women remain unclear, including across hormonal state or phase, as well as in comparison with men. This dissertation includes

The Endothelium in Sepsis [PDF]
Sepsis affects practically all aspects of endothelial cell (EC) function and is thought to be the key factor in the progression from sepsis to organ failure. Endothelial functions affected by sepsis include vasoregulation, barrier function, inflammation, and hemostasis.

The endothelium is a monolayer of cells on the posterior corneal surface that transports water from the stroma into the anterior chamber. This movement of water counters a natural tendency for the stroma to swell and is necessary to maintain a transparent cornea.

Physiology of the endothelium [PDF]
In the past, the endothelium was considered to be inert, described as a 'layer of nucleated cellophane', with only non-reactive barrier properties, such as presentation of a non-thrombogenic surface for blood flow and guarding against pro-inflammatory insults.

Natriuretic peptide receptor-C regulates coronary blood flow and prevents myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury: novel cardioprotective role for endothelium-derived C-type natriuretic peptide [PDF]
Background: Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury complicates myocardial infarction and stroke by exacerbating tissue damage and increasing risk of mortality.

Vascular device interaction with the endothelium [PDF]
The interaction between cerebral stents and endothelium, as well as the interaction between intra aortic balloon pumps, temporary cardiac assist devices, with aortic tissues are described in view of the numerical modelling of the above vascular ...

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.

The regulation of function of endothelial cell–cell junctions is fundamental in sustaining vascular integrity. The polycistronic microRNA (miR) complexes containing miR-23a-27a-24-2, and 23b-27b-24-1 are predicted to target the majority of major ...

Morphological Study on Development of Vascular Endothelium in Chick Embryo [PDF]
The vascular endothelium and hematopoietic stem cells are believed to derive from common progenitor cells called hemangioblasts. However, morphological study on the development of vascular endothelial cell has been scarce.

Mercaptoethylguanidine is a selective inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitor on pulmonary artery
Background: Nitric oxide (NO) is a colorless and odorless toxic gas and a short-acting physiological vasodilator. NO is produced by nitric oxide synthase (NOS).
