Endothelial Wnt/β-catenin signaling inhibits glioma angiogenesis and normalizes tumor blood vessels by inducing PDGF-B expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Endothelial Wnt/β-catenin signaling is necessary for angiogenesis of the central nervous system and blood–brain barrier (BBB) differentiation, but its relevance for glioma vascularization is unknown. In this study, we show that doxycycline-dependent Wnt1

Lung volume recruitment maneuvers and respiratory system mechanics in mechanically ventilated mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The study aim was to establish how recruitment maneuvers (RMs) influence lung mechanics and to determine whether RMs produce lung injury. Healthy BALB/c mice were allocated to receive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) at 2 or 6 cmH2O and volume ...

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 ...

Mechanisms of vascular morphogenesis and stabilization by VEGF dose [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
VEGF is the master regulator of angiogenesis and the most investigated factor in therapeutic angiogenesis approaches to induce the growth of new vessels that could restore oxygen and nutrients supply in tissues affected by ischemia.

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 ...

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.

Safer recruitment practice: audit of exisiting recruitment practices in residential child care [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In the wake of a number of high profile cases of the abuse of children and young people in residential child care, there have been repeated calls for the improvement of recruitment and selection of residential child care staff.

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 ...

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.
