Cytochemical Differences in Bacterial Glycocalyx
Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2005To examine new cytochemical aspects of the bacterial adhesion, a strain 41452/01 of the oral commensalStreptococcus sanguisand a wild strain ofStaphylococcus aureuswere grown with and without sucrose supplementation for 6 days. Osmiumtetraoxyde (OsO4), uranyl acetate (UA), ruthenium red (RR), cupromeronic blue (CB) staining with critical electrolytic ...

Glycocalyx in Sepsis Resuscitation
Critical Care Nursing Quarterly, 2016Starling's forces are fundamental to our understanding of physiology. Based on his findings, hydrostatic pressure and oncotic pressure are crucial factors in the movement of intravascular and extravascular fluid. However, new literatures on endothelial glycocalyx, a layer of protective glycoprotein within the vasculature that was first discovered in ...

Assessment and Imaging of the Cerebrovascular Glycocalyx
Current Neurovascular Research, 2016The glycocalyx is a gel-like layer lining the luminal surface of the endothelium. The glycocalyx exerts an important barrier role because it prevents exposure of plasma components to the endothelial surface. Disruption of the glycocalyx by local inflammation or ischemia results in decreased glycocalyx thickness which is associated with a number of ...

Alteration of the enucleating erythroblast glycocalyx
Acta Histochemica, 1979Plasmalemmal differentiation of the enucleating normoblast of rabbit and rat was studied by means of cytochemical methods and freeze-etching. Staining with colloidal iron revealed about identical amounts of iron particles bound to various areas of the normoblast membrane.

Localization of Galectins within Glycocalyx
Biochemistry (Moscow), 2018Galectins are involved in various biological processes, e.g. cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion and the transmission of cellular signals. Despite the diversity of functions, little is known about the nature of their physiological cognate ligands on the cell surface and the localization of galectins in the glycocalyx, although this information is ...

A microscopic view on the renal endothelial glycocalyx
American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2015Endothelial cells perform key homeostatic functions such as regulating blood flow, permeability, and aiding immune surveillance for pathogens. While endothelial activation serves normal physiological adaptation, maladaptation of these endothelial functions has been identified as an important effector mechanism in the progression of renal disease as ...

Glycocalyx of lung epithelial cells
2002Due to their diversity and external location on cell membranes, glycans, as glycocalyx components, are key elements in eukaryotic cell, tissue, and organ homeostasis. Although information on the lung glycocalyx is scarce, this article aims to review, discuss, and summarize what is known about bronchoalveolar glycocalyx composition, mainly the sialic ...

Particular glycans exhibit spatiotemporal expression patterns during embryonic development and may become re-expressed in malignant human tumours. Carcinoma-associated cell surface glycans can be involved in invasive and metastatic growth or of clinical importance as predictive markers.

Endothelial Glycocalyx and the Peritoneal Barrier
Peritoneal Dialysis International: Journal of the International Society for Peritoneal Dialysis, 2008Recent advances in the study of the microcirculation have demonstrated the critical role of the endothelial glycocalyx in transcapillary transport from the plasma to the tissue interstitium. Since the capillary wall represents the initial resistance to solute transfer from the plasma through the tissue to the dialysate, the glycocalyx is potentially ...
