Human umbilical vein endothelial cells secrete transcobalamin II [PDF]
Blood, 1990 Abstract Transcobalamin II (TC II) is essential for cellular uptake of cobalamin. However, the origin of this transport protein is controversial and many organ sources have been suggested. We studied human umbilical vein endothelial cells cultured in vitro.

Urotensin II induces interleukin 8 expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
PLoS ONE, 2014 BackgroundUrotensin II (U-II), an 11-amino acid peptide, exerts a wide range of actions in cardiovascular systems. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is secreted by endothelial cells, thereby enhancing endothelial cell survival, proliferation, and angiogenesis ...

VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) Induces NRP1 (Neuropilin-1) Cleavage via ADAMs (a Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase) 9 and 10 to Generate Novel Carboxy- Terminal NRP1 Fragments That Regulate Angiogenic Signaling [PDF]
, 2018 OBJECTIVE: NRP1(neuropilin-1) acts as a coreceptor for VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) with an essential role in angiogenesis. Recent findings suggest that posttranslational proteolytic cleavage of VEGF receptors may be an important mechanism

Effects of TSH on the function of human umbilical vein endothelial cells [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2014 Recent studies have reported that subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is associated with atherosclerosis (AS). Thyroid hormone is maintained at normal levels in patients with SCH, whereas TSH is increased. However, the pathogenesis of AS in association with SCH is only partially understood.
