Isolation of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC) [PDF]
Angiogenesis is a complex multi-step process, where in response to angiogenic stimuli, new vessels are created from the existing vasculature. These steps include: degradation of the basement membrane, proliferation and migration (sprouting) of endothelial cells (EC) into the extracellular matrix, alignment of EC into cords, lumen formation, anastomosis,

Proteoglycans from human umbilical vein endothelial cells [PDF]
Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were incubated with [35S]sulphate and investigated for their proteoglycan production. By gel chromatography, ion-exchange chromatography and CsCl density-gradient centrifugation we obtained preparative amounts of the endothelial proteoheparan sulphate HSI and of proteochondroitin sulphate from the conditioned ...

Biphasic Effects of Blue Light Irradiation on Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells
Blue light regulates biological function in various cells, such as proliferation, oxidative stress, and cell death. We employed blue light illumination on human umbilical vein endothelial cells utilizing a LED device at 453 nm wavelength and revealed a ...

Regulation of Thrombin Receptors on Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Activated thrombin receptors on human umbilical vein endothelial cells rapidly undergo homologous desensitization, leaving the cells unable to respond to thrombin. The present studies examine the fate of activated thrombin receptors on endothelial cells and the mechanisms that restore intact receptors to the cell surface.

Assembly of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells on Compliant Hydrogels [PDF]
Angiogenesis is the process by which endothelial cells grow and disassemble into functional blood vessels. In this study, we examine the fundamental processes that control the assembly of endothelial cells into networks in vitro. Network assembly is known to be influenced by matrix mechanics and chemical signals.

Lycopene inhibits angiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells and rat aortic rings [PDF]
Angiogenesis is important for tumour vascularisation and growth, and is therefore a promising target for cancer therapy. The present study reports inhibition ofin vitroangiogenesis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) as well as in rat ...

Expression of mRNA for phospholipase A(2), cyclooxygenases, and lipoxygenases in cultured human umbilical vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells and in biopsies from umbilical arteries and veins [PDF]
Arachidonic acid (AA) is released by phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and then converted into vasoactive and inflammatory eicosanoids by cyclooxygenases (COX) and lipoxygenases (LOX).
