Exogenous laminin exhibits a unique vascular pattern in the brain via binding to dystroglycan and integrins [PDF]
Background Unlike other proteins that exhibit a diffusion pattern after intracerebral injection, laminin displays a vascular pattern. It remains unclear if this unique vascular pattern is caused by laminin-receptor interaction or laminin self-assembly ...

Vascular pattern analysis for the prediction of clinical behaviour in pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas. [PDF]
Pheochromocytomas (PCCs) are neuroendocrine tumors arising from chromaffin cells of the adrenal medulla. Related tumors that arise from the paraganglia outside the adrenal medulla are called paragangliomas (PGLs).

Patterning the renal vascular bed [PDF]
The renal vascular bed has a stereotypic architecture that is essential for the kidney's role in excreting metabolic waste and regulating the volume and composition of body fluids. The kidney's excretory functions are dependent on the delivery of the majority of renal blood flow to the glomerular capillaries, which filter plasma removing from it ...

Evaluation of Intra-Tumoral Vascularization in Hepatocellular Carcinomas
Intratumoral neovascularization has intricate effects on tumor growth, metastasis, and treatment. Over the last 30 years, Microvessel density (MVD) has been the standard method for laboratory and clinical evaluation of angiogenesis.

Vascular Patterning: Xylem or Phloem? [PDF]
Xylem and phloem are the major conduits for the transport of water and solutes through the plant. Recent work has helped to elucidate the mechanisms that determine the identity and arrangement of these two tissues.

A Dynamic Biometric Authentication Algorithm for Near-Infrared Palm Vascular Patterns
In this paper we apply a novel approach to near-infrared subcutaneous palm vascular pattern authentication. The proposed method relies on a recursive algorithm based on a positive linear dynamical system whose evolution depends on the two matrices ...
