SINCE electron microscope techniques have been applied to histology, several workers have confirmed that the blood–air barrier of the lung consists of a capillary endothelium, a basement ...

The lobate shape of lymphatic endothelial cells puzzled researchers—now they’ve found it helps stabilize lymphatic capillaries against fluid pressure changes. Laura is an Assistant Editor for The ...

disruption of aortic endothelial barrier, and atherosclerosis in mouse models of obesity and hypercholesterolemia. We conclude that stiffening of the aortic endothelium by CD36-mediated uptake of ...

Capillary leakage is a hallmark of severe dengue ... (15) Both properties are crucial for maintaining the structural integrity of the endothelium, which functions as a selective barrier to regulate ...

2 When the difference between capillary and interstitial hydrostatic pressure on ... results from lung injury that disrupts endothelial integrity. 2 One potential cause is airway obstruction. This can ...

The finest of all these lymphatic vessels are called lymph capillaries. They have walls that are made up of just a single layer of lymphatic endothelial cells that are permeable to fluids, cells and ...

One major contributor to this dysfunction is the behavior of pericytes, which support endothelial cells in normal blood vessels but become immature and dysregulated in tumors, contributing to vascular ...

Liver and lung tissues were collected for H&E staining, RT-qPCR, Western blot and GSH content detection. Injury or dysfunction of endothelial cells (ECs) was assessed using RT-qPCR, Western blot and ...

Scutellarin (SC), a natural flavonoid, has been expansively employed in treating innumerable inflammation-related diseases due to its antitumor, antiinflammatory, anticancer, and antioxidant potential ...
