Intracellular uptake of macromolecules by brain lymphatic
endothelial cells during embryonic development Stefan Schulte - Merker, Westfälische Wilhelms - Universität Münster
Yet, more recent discoveries suggest a much more active role of
endothelial cells during tumor growth than has been anticipated so far.
Not exact matches
The force of that blood flow helps keep the
cells that line the blood vessels, called
endothelial cells, healthy; when blood flow is disrupted, such as
during surgical procedures or a stroke, the vessels start to leak, which can cause a host of inflammatory responses that lead to
cell damage and disease.
During the creation of new blood vessels, the vascular
endothelial growth factor (VEGF) protein differentiates stem
cells into vascular
endothelial cells and stimulates them to create new blood vessels.
Similar to
cells growing at 33 °C,
endothelial cells plated in the 37 °C environment also engaged in
cell division
during the first 24 h. However,
during the next 72 h, the growth of most
endothelial cells in 37 °C conditions dropped to 50 % of that of their counterparts growing at 33 °C (data not shown).
Release of cytochrome c, Bax migration, Bid cleavage, and activation of caspases 2, 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9
during endothelial cell apoptosis.
In this study, Chazaud et al., evidenced that
endothelial cells (ECs) and myogenic progenitor
cells (MPCs) interacted to couple myogenesis and angiogenesis
during skeletal muscle regeneration.
Lethal factor directly effects
endothelial and epithelial
cells to reduce barrier integrity
during infection [5].
The final event
during angiogenesis is the organization of
endothelial cells in a 3 - D network of tubes.
DIC images of
endothelial progenitor
cells (EPCs)
during in vitro expansion (A) and differentiation (B).
Moreover, ES
cell differentiation in vitro recapitulates events that take place
during early embryonic development including the formation of the three germ layers of ectoderm, mesoderm and endoderm, and the emergence of
endothelial, hematopoietic, cardiac, neuronal and hepatic or pancreatic
cells [8], [9].
A damaged
endothelial cell wall means low performance
during physical activity as well as an increased risk in heart attack since a healthy
endothelial cell wall does not allow arterial blockages to form.
Flavonoids, including anthocyanins, seem to modulate this type of monocyte adhesion
during the inflammatory process by decreasing their expression by
endothelial cells.
