Vascular Mural Cells Promote Noradrenergic Differentiation of Embryonic Sympathetic Neurons

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
The sympathetic nervous system controls smooth muscle tone and heart rate in the cardiovascular system. Postganglionic sympathetic neurons (SNs) develop in close proximity to the dorsal aorta (DA) and innervate visceral smooth muscle targets.

A molecular map of murine lymph node blood vascular endothelium at single cell resolution

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The origin and diversity of blood vascular endothelial cells (BEC) in lymphoid tissues is unclear. Here, the authors profile murine BECs from peripheral lymph nodes by single cell analysis and identify subsets of cells specialised for immune cell ...

Recruitment of the Vascular Endothelium into Neurovascular Coupling

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2012
In neurovascular coupling (NVC), neuronal activity in the brain leads to elevated local blood flow to satisfy the increased metabolic demands of the active tissue. The vascular endothelium has a major role in the modulation of blood flow, and here we explore the hypothesis that the endothelium has an important role in NVC.

Progenitor/Stem Cells in Vascular Remodeling during Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

open access: yesCells, 2021
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by an important occlusive vascular remodeling with the production of new endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, myofibroblasts, and fibroblasts.

Determinants of Pulmonary Vascular Volume [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 1972
This study attempted to evaluate the relative roles of vessel distensibility and vessel recruitment in the changes in pulmonary blood volume induced by changes in pulmonary intravascular pressure. Pulmonary blood volume was determined by a double-injection indicator-dilution technique in eight anesthetized open-chest dogs with a right and ...

Increased functional and structural skin capillary density in type 1 diabetes patients with vascular complications

open access: yesDiabetology & Metabolic Syndrome, 2009
The present study was designed to study skin capillary density and recruitment of the upper and lower extremities in patients with type 1 diabetes with vascular complications, when compared to patients without complications and healthy subjects.

Leukocyte recruitment and expression of chemokines following different forms of vascular injury [PDF]

open access: yesVascular Medicine, 2003
Inflammation plays a central role in restenosis following coronary intervention. Recent human and animal data suggest important differences between the inflammatory responses to simple balloon angioplasty compared with stent implantation. To investigate the mechanisms of these differences, New Zealand white rabbits underwent bilateral iliac artery ...

Role of Platelets in Leukocyte Recruitment and Resolution of Inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Platelets are most often recognized for their crucial role in the control of acute hemorrhage. However, current research has greatly expanded the appreciation of platelets beyond their contribution to primary hemostasis, indicating that platelets also ...

ROCK1 mediates leukocyte recruitment and neointima formation following vascular injury [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2008
Although Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) activity has been implicated in cardiovascular diseases, the tissue- and isoform-specific roles of ROCKs in the vascular response to injury are not known. To address the role of ROCKs in this process, we generated haploinsufficient Rock1 (Rock1(+/-)) and Rock2 (Rock2(+/-)) mice and performed carotid artery ...

Characterization of Vascular Adhesion Molecules that may Facilitate Progenitor Homing in the Post-natal Mouse Thymus

open access: yesClinical and Developmental Immunology, 2003
T cell progenitors derive from the bone marrow but must migrate via bloodstream to the thymus in order to differentiate. The mechanism by which the thymus recruits progenitors from the blood is unknown.
