The function of endothelium is the lining of the vessel wall and the control of vascular permeability, homeostasis and leukocyte emigration from the blood into the surrounding tissue. From: Vascular Pharmacology, 2002 About this pageSet alert ...

51,52Second, they show designated transporters for regulating the inflow and outflow of specific substrates.53Third, they show a restriction on the number of transcellular vesicles through the vessel wall due to the high transendothelial electrical resistance.54,55Because of the existence...
tuberculosis-infected human ΜΦ suggests that these cells also express factors which stimulate endothelial cells to form new blood vessel networks. To test this possibility, we adapted a well-established model used to evaluate the ability of human tumor cells to form metastases35. Briefly,...
blood vessel development. A well-known endothelial-specific secretion mechanism is those that employ WPBs. WPBs are cigar-shaped secretory granules that are primarily found within the endothelium. The most predominant protein housed in this structure is pro-thrombotic von Willebrand factor (VWF), a...
Blood fractionation is a process in which the blood is separated into three different fractions through the process of centrifugation. The densest components settle at the bottom of the centrifuge tube and the less dense components of the blood settle at the upper layers. ...
After centrifugation and removal of the supernatant containing the enzymes, the cell pellets of the flow through and the corresponding digested vessel fragments were combined, washed once and resuspended in FACS buffer (5% serum in PBS, 0.5 mL/brain) to obtain the final single cell suspension for...
The tight junction is composed of claudin and occludin proteins, which interact with the zona occludens proteins (labeled ZO in the figure) along their cytoplasmic surface. The calcium-dependent homotypic interaction of endothelial VE-cadherin of the adherens junction is relayed to the actin ...
When a wound breaches the walls of a blood vessel, several mechanisms quickly come into play to stem the flow of blood (hemostasis). The first is almost immediate constriction of the injured vessel by contractions of the smooth muscle cells found in its walls. The second is formation of a ...
The anchor structure can further comprise one or more arm/bridge structures that physically couple the sensor housing 516 to one or more stents or other tissue and/or vessel anchors. Although certain components are illustrated in FIG. 5 as part of the sensor implant device 510, it should be ...
