Impact of modeled microgravity on microvascular endothelial cells

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2005
Microvascular endothelial cells are protagonists in inflammation and angiogenesis. They contribute to the integrity of microvasculature by synthesizing a large array of cytokines, growth factors and mediators active on the endothelium itself, on smooth muscle cells and circulating leukocytes. Because space flight (i) associates with vascular impairment

Bioinformatics analysis of coronary microvascular dysfunction in rats based on single-cell RNA sequencing

Scientific Reports
Coronary microvascular dysfunction serves as one of the etiological factors for ischemic heart disease and represents a novel therapeutic direction for coronary artery diseases; however, the research on its pathogenesis remains inconsistent.

The Role of PGE2 in Alveolar Epithelial and Lung Microvascular Endothelial Crosstalk

Scientific Reports, 2017
Disruption of the blood-air barrier, which is formed by lung microvascular endothelial and alveolar epithelial cells, is a hallmark of acute lung injury. It was shown that alveolar epithelial cells release an unidentified soluble factor that enhances the

Neutrophil extracellular traps drive intestinal microvascular endothelial ferroptosis by impairing Fundc1-dependent mitophagy

Redox Biology, 2023
Microvascular endothelial damage caused by intestinal ischemia‒reperfusion (II/R) is a primary catalyst for microcirculation dysfunction and enterogenous infection.

Functional Blood‐Brain Barrier Crossing by Biomimetic M13 Phage Vectors for Targeted Neuronal Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the M13 bacteriophage as a biomimetic nanovector capable of crossing in vitro models of the blood–brain barrier. By exploiting peculiar transcellular pathways, M13 avoids lysosomal degradation and preserves its structural integrity and functionality.

Secretome profiling of human epithelial cells exposed to cigarette smoke extract and their effect on human lung microvascular endothelial cells

Scientific Reports
Cigarette smoke (CS) is one of the leading causes of pulmonary diseases and can induce lung secretome alteration. CS exposure-induced damages to human pulmonary epithelial cells and microvascular endothelial cells have been extensively demonstrated ...

Intervention of exogenous VEGF protect brain microvascular endothelial cells from hypoxia-induced injury by regulating PLCγ/RAS/ERK and PI3K/AKT pathways

Experimental Gerontology
Ischemic stroke rapidly increases the expression level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which promotes neovascularization during hypoxia.

A Versatile Microfluidic Extrusion‐Based Hydrogel Platform for Self‐Organization and Long‐Term Maintenance of Engineered 3D Lymphatic Endothelium

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Microfluidic coaxial extrusion generates size‐controlled 3D lymphatic tubes from primary human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells in a defined four‐component matrix. These engineered vessels self‐organize into stable lymphatic endothelium, maintain selective macromolecular permeability for 30 days, and enable direct comparison with blood endothelial ...

Capsule independent uptake of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans into brain microvascular endothelial cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Cryptococcosis is a life-threatening fungal disease with a high rate of mortality among HIV/AIDS patients across the world. The ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is central to the pathogenesis of cryptococcosis, but the way in which this
