Regional diversity in the murine cortical vascular network is revealed by synchrotron X-ray tomography and is amplified with age [PDF]
Cortical bone is permeated by a system of pores, occupied by the blood supply and osteocytes. With ageing, bone mass reduction and disruption of the microstructure are associated with reduced vascular supply.

A novel device for non-invasive cerebral perfusion assessment
Currently brain perfusion can be assessed by the means of radio-invasive methods, such as single-photon emission computed tomography and positron emission tomography, or by hightech methods such as magnetic resonance imaging.

Differentiation of multipotent vascular stem cells contributes to vascular diseases. [PDF]
It is generally accepted that the de-differentiation of smooth muscle cells, from the contractile to the proliferative/synthetic phenotype, has an important role during vascular remodelling and diseases.

FAK Family Kinases in Vascular Diseases
In various vascular diseases, extracellular matrix (ECM) and integrin expression are frequently altered, leading to focal adhesion kinase (FAK) or proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) activation.
