Glycocalyx Degradation in Retinal and Choroidal Capillary Endothelium in Rats with Diabetes and Hypertension [PDF]
, 2010 Endothelial glycocalyx (GCX) has been reported as a protective factor for vascular endothelial cells (VEC) in diabetes and hypertension. However, the involvement of GCX impairment in ocular vasculopathy remains unclear.

Soluble adhesion molecules and angiotensin-converting enzyme in dementia
Neurobiology of Disease, 2007 We aimed to determine plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and the soluble forms of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) and platelet endothelial cell ...

Long-term high fat feeding of rats results in increased numbers of circulating microvesicles with pro-inflammatory effects on endothelial cells [PDF]
, 2015 Obesity and type 2 diabetes lead to dramatically increased risks of atherosclerosis and CHD. Multiple mechanisms converge to promote atherosclerosis by increasing endothelial oxidative stress and up-regulating expression of pro-inflammatory molecules ...

Effects of stereoisomers of thioctic acid on rat renal vasculature microanatomy [PDF]
, 2012 Metabolism of oxygen by cells can generate potentially dangerous reactive oxygen species (ROS). Endothelial cells lining vascular luminal surface are an important site of signalling molecules and a ROS target during ischemia, inflammation and other ...

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) color reporter gene visualizes parvovirus B19 non-structural segment 1 (NS1) transfected endothelial modification. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Human Parvovirus B19 (PVB19) has been associated with myocarditis putative due to endothelial infection. Whether PVB19 infects endothelial cells and causes a modification of endothelial function and inflammation and, thus, disturbance of ...

Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule‐1 and mechanotransduction in vascular endothelial cells [PDF]
Journal of Internal Medicine, 2006 Abstract.Endothelial cells are known to respond to mechanical forces such as fluid shear stress and cyclic stretch, but elucidating the mechanism for mechanosensing has been difficult. Experimental data indicate that there are probably several sensing mechanisms.

Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule‐1 is Expressed in Adenoidal Crypt Epithelial Cells [PDF]
Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, 2005 AbstractThe adenoidal epithelial crypt is a potential site of antigen transport from pharyngeal lumen to adenoidal tissue. The base of the crypt is consistently infiltrated with leucocytes, forming a reticular lymphoepithelial structure. To evaluate mechanisms that possibly mediate leucocyte infiltration, expressions of leucocyte adhesion molecules ...

Alterations in Circulating Adhesion Molecules in Acute Myocardial Infarction before and after Thrombolysis with Streptokinase [PDF]
Journal of Cardiovascular and Thoracic Research, 2013 Introduction: The role of adhesion molecules in the development and progression of coronary atherosclerosis is inevitable. It is not clear yet whether these molecules increase or decrease in level after thrombolytic therapy.
