Retinal Microvasculature in Schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is associated with alterations in neural structure and function of the retina that are similar to changes seen in the retina and brain in multiple neurodegenerative disorders. Preliminary evidence suggests that retinal microvasculature may also be compromised in schizophrenia.

Alterations to the cerebral microcirculation have been recognized to play a crucial role in the development of neurodegenerative disorders. However, the exact role of the microvascular alterations in the pathophysiological mechanisms often remains poorly

Effects of biomechanical and biochemical stimuli on angio- and vasculogenesis in a complex microvasculature-on-chip [PDF]
Summary: The endothelium of blood vessels is a vital organ that reacts differently to subtle changes in stiffness and mechanical forces exerted on its environment (extracellular matrix (ECM)).

Effects of Cardiotoxins on Cardiac Stem and Progenitor Cell Populations
As research and understanding of the cardiotoxic side-effects of anticancer therapy expands further and the affected patient population grows, notably the long-term survivors of childhood cancers, it is important to consider the full range of myocardial ...

A rapid, nondestructive method for vascular network visualization
The quantitative analysis of blood vessel networks is an important component in many animal models of disease. We describe a nondestructive technique for blood vessel imaging that visualizes in situ vasculature in harvested tissues. The method allows for

MR imaging of microvasculature [PDF]
An imaging technique is proposed in which the contrast is correlated to the morphology of capillaries and other small blood vessels. The technique is based on measurements of the relaxation rates 1/T(2) and 1/T*(2) before and after the injection of a contrast agent. An image is then formed by mapping the quantity Q identical with delta R(2)/(delta R*(2)

A decline in the function of the microvasculature occurs with ageing. An impairment of endothelial properties represents a main aspect of age-related microvascular alterations. Endothelial dysfunction manifests itself through a reduced angiogenic capacity, an aberrant expression of adhesion molecules and an impaired vasodilatory function.
