Microvascular Endothelial Cell Shape and Size in Situ
Microvascular Research, 1993To estimate total cleft length per unit surface area, previous studies assumed that endothelial cell clefts were oriented randomly with respect to the axis of the microvessel (Bundgaard and Frøkjaer-Jensen, Microvasc. Res. 23, 1-30, 1982). In the present study, silver precipitation along the intercellular clefts of capillary endothelium ("silver lines")

Microvascular endothelial cell heterogeneity: Interactions with leukocytes and tumor cells
Cancer and Metastasis Reviews, 1990Endothelium constitutes a highly specialized organ that lines the vascular system and lymphatic channels. This organ is a complex network of arteries, veins, and microvessels that differ in size, structure, and function. The unique and strategic location imposes functional demands on the endothelium that are far greater than just being a passive ...

VEGF differentially activates STAT3 in microvascular endothelial cells
The FASEB Journal, 2003ABSTRACT Increased VEGF expression is found in several pathologies characterized by abnormal angiogenesis. Previous studies have shown that the transcription factor STAT3 mediates VEGF gene transcription and its activation. In this study, Western analysis and confocal immunocytochemistry were used to examine STAT3 activation in ...

Dexamethasone effects on microvascular endothelial cell lipid composition
American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 1989Previous studies have shown that treatment of cultured rabbit coronary microvessel endothelial (RCME) cells with dexamethasone results in a dose-, time-, and glucocorticoid-dependent inhibition of prostaglandin release. In the present study, the effects of dexamethasone on RCME membrane lipid composition and release of arachidonic acid were examined ...

Microvascular Endothelial Cells from Heart
1990Endothelial cells from macrovascular and microvascular vessels differ in many of their physiological properties [20, 21, 36, 55, 72]. For a detailed analysis of the metabolism and the physiological function of the microvascular endothelium, cultures of microvascular cells are required.

Microvascular Endothelial Cells from Brain
1990In addition to providing a nonthrombogenic surface, synthesizing factor VIII, and participating in vascular tone regulation, most endothelial cells of the vasculature of the brain participate in the blood-brain barrier. The bloodbrain barrier severely restricts the entry of macromolecules into nervous tissue and provides a selective permeability ...

Microvascular Endothelial Cells from the Lungs
1990The overwhelming majority of all the endothelial cells in the body are found in the pulmonary microcirculation. However, despite early recognition that many of the most important functions attributable to the pulmonary vasculature occur at the level of the small vessels of the lungs [1, 2], relatively few in vitro studies have used endothelial cells ...

The heteromorphology of cultured microvascular endothelial cells.
Arzneimittel-Forschung, 1994Endothelial cells alter morphology easily when culture conditions change. One has omitted to test carefully whether this heteromorphology represents constitutional differences which are maintained in culture. Cells were isolated from the microvascular tree of the bovine corpus luteum by mechanical disintegration, i.e.
