Radiation Research, Vol. 161, No. 2 (Feb., 2004), pp. 174-184 (11 pages) Radiation-induced changes in capillaries constitute a basic injury in the pathogenesis of chronic radiation damage to the heart ...

A protein that is expressed on capillary endothelial cells, called GPIHBP1 (glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored high-density lipoprotein binding protein 1), binds lipoprotein lipase and shuttles it ...

The interaction of homologous and heterologous albumin-gold complex (Alb-Au) with capillary endothelium was investigated in the mouse lung, heart, and diaphragm. Perfusion of the tracer in situ for ...

In their work toward 3-D printing transplantable tissues and organs, bioengineers and scientists have demonstrated a key step on the path to generate implantable tissues with functioning capillaries.

Endothelial cells tend to get short shrift in studies of Alzheimer’s, but new results now implicate these cells in the toxic brain environment of people with this disease. In the September 28 ...

They showed how to use a combination of human endothelial cells and mesenchymal stem cells to initiate a process called tubulogenesis that is crucial to the formation of blood-transporting capillaries ...

In a recent study published in Pathology – Research and Practice, researchers evaluated the presence of RNA of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the lung tissue of ...

The lymphatic system is a network of branching vessels that regulate fluid balance and support the immune system. Its smallest capillaries, comprised of a single endothelial cell layer, must stay ...
