Lectin-Based Characterization of Vascular Cell Microparticle Glycocalyx. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Microparticles (MPs) are released constitutively and from activated cells. MPs play significant roles in vascular homeostasis, injury, and as biomarkers.

Modulation of Endothelial Glycocalyx Structure under Inflammatory Conditions
Mediators of Inflammation, 2014 The glycocalyx of the endothelium is an intravascular compartment that creates a barrier between circulating blood and the vessel wall. The glycocalyx is suggested to play an important role in numerous physiological processes including the regulation of ...

Endothelial pathophysiology, glycosaminoglycans and glycocalyx [PDF]
, 2015 The endothelial glycocalyx can be described as a network of membrane-bound proteoglycans and glycoproteins, covering the luminal surface of endothelial cells. Over the past decades, structural properties and functions of glycocalyx have been increasingly

Neuraminidase inhibitors protect the glycocalyx.
, 2022 Representative images and comparison of glycocalyx staining intensity in human umbilical vein endothelial cells shows that glycocalyx staining intensity is preserved when neuraminidase exposure occurs in the presence of the neuraminidase inhibitor ...

Glycocalyx strengthens endothelial barrier function and protects from angioedema inducing compounds
Frontiers in ImmunologyIntroductionHereditary angioedema (HAE) and mast cell-mediated angioedema are characterized by episodic swelling. Yet, atypical variants, such as HAE with normal C1 inhibitor, remain poorly understood and diagnostically challenging.

The Role of Heparin and Glycocalyx in Blood–Brain Barrier Dysfunction
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 The blood-brain barrier (BBB) functions as a dynamic boundary that protects the central nervous system from blood and plays an important role in maintaining the homeostasis of the brain.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
