cMet and fas receptor interaction inhibits death-inducing signaling complex formation in endothelial cells [PDF]
, 2005 Fas receptor is constitutively expressed on endothelial cells; however, these cells are highly resistant to Fas-mediated apoptosis. In this study, we examined death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) formation in endothelial cells after Fas receptor ...

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]
, 1998 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).

Regulation of Thrombin Receptors on Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1995 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.

C5a-Induced Gene Expression in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells [PDF]
The American Journal of Pathology, 2004 The endothelium plays a critical role in the inflammatory process. The complement activation product, C5a, is known to have proinflammatory effects on the endothelium, but the molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We have used cDNA microarray analysis to assess gene expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) that were stimulated with ...
