Isolation of Microvascular Endothelial Cells

Bio-Protocol, 2018
The vascular endothelium is essential to normal vascular homeostasis. Its dysfunction participates in various cardiovascular disorders. Murine endothelial cell culture is an important tool for cardiovascular disease research. This protocol demonstrates a

Microvascular endothelial cells of the corpus luteum [PDF]

Reproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2003
The cyclic nature of the capillary bed in the corpus luteum offers a unique experimental model to examine the life cycle of endothelial cells, involving discrete physiologically regulated steps of angiogenesis, blood vessel maturation and blood vessel ...

Human Liver Endothelial Cells, But Not Macrovascular or Microvascular Endothelial Cells, Engraft in the Mouse Liver [PDF]

Cell Transplantation, 2013
Liver cell transplantation has had limited clinical success so far, partly due to poor engraftment of hepatocytes. Instead of hepatocytes. other cell types, such as endothelial cells, could be used in ex vivo liver gene therapy.

Retroviral transformation of cerebral microvascular endothelial cells: macrophage-like and microvascular endothelial cell properties [PDF]

Blood, 1991
We report that L-cell-conditioned medium (LCM) transforms porcine cerebral microvascular (PCMV) endothelial cells into cells with macrophage-like properties. LCM is known to contain both cytokine(s) and the L-cell virus, a murine retrovirus found in the L929 cell and LCM. Our evidence suggests that both LCM cytokine(s) and the L-cell virus are involved

Cell Chirality of Micropatterned Endometrial Microvascular Endothelial Cells

Advanced Healthcare Materials, 2023
ABSTRACT Chirality is an intrinsic cellular property that describes cell polarization biases along the left-right axis, apicobasal axis, or front-rear axes. Cell chirality plays a significant role in the arrangement of organs in the body as well as the orientation of organelles, cytoskeletons, and cells.

Role of Microvascular Endothelial Cells in Inflammation

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1993
Endothelial cells are critical elements in the evolution of all types of cutaneous inflammation. They participate through the synthesis and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin 1 (IL-1), IL-6, and IL-8, as well as M-CSF, G-CSF, GM-CSF, gro alpha, and MCP.

Radiation-induced apoptosis in microvascular endothelial cells [PDF]

British Journal of Cancer, 1997
The response of the microvasculature to ionizing radiation is thought to be an important factor in the overall response of both normal tissues and tumours. It has recently been reported that basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), a potent mitogen for endothelial cells, protects large vessel endothelial cells from radiation-induced apoptosis in vitro ...

Shear Stress Rescued the Neuronal Impairment Induced by Global Cerebral Ischemia Reperfusion via Activating PECAM-1-eNOS-NO Pathway

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Microvessel hypoperfusion following ischemic stress resulted in a decreased shear stress of brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) and contributed to abnormal expression of PECAM-1 after global cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury.

Anti-endothelial cell antibodies in pathogenesis of vasculitis

Frontiers in Immunology
Vasculitis is a group of syndromes characterized by inflammation, presence of autoantibodies and endothelial cells (ECs) damage, which lead to stenosis or occlusion of the vascular lumen. Anti-endothelial cell antibodies (AECAs) are a heterogeneous group

Effect of tryptase on mouse brain microvascular endothelial cells via protease-activated receptor 2

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2018
Background Mast cells (MCs), the ‘first responders’ in brain injury, are able to disrupt the blood–brain barrier (BBB), but the underlying mechanism is not well understood. Tryptase is the most abundant MC secretory product. Protease-activated receptor 2
