Sentences with phrase «vascular cell adhesion»

One of the earliest events in the development of atherosclerosis is the recruitment of inflammatory white blood cells from the blood to the arterial wall by vascular cell adhesion molecules (42).

Two molecules that are known to increase during inflammatory disease processes — vascular cell adhesion molecule - 1 (VCAM - 1) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM - 1)-- have also been shown to decrease in amount following intake of EVOO.

We therefore conducted a cross-sectional analysis to investigate the relations between magnesium intake and plasma concentrations of inflammatory and endothelial biomarkers, including CRP, IL - 6, soluble TNF - α receptor 2 (sTNF - R2), E-selectin, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM - 1), and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM - 1) in apparently healthy women.

This research has centered on biomarkers of inflammation including interleukin - 6 (IL - 6), vascular cell adhesion molecule - 1 (VCAM - 1), and lymphocyte function - associated antigen - 1 (LFA - 1).

Vascular Signaling Regulation of vascular morphogenesis Brant Weinstein, NICHD / NIH Hemodynamic control of vascular development Mark Kahn, University of Pennsylvania A rap song about vascular cell adhesion Mark Ginsberg, University of California, San Diego

Established cell lines exhibited several inherent endothelial properties, including the expression of constitutive and inducible levels of endothelial cell adhesion molecules E-selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule - 1, and vascular cell adhesion molecule - 1, internalization of acetylated low - density lipoprotein, and formation of loop structures on Matrigel surfaces.

Eph receptor and ephrin ligand signalling has been implicated in vascular development and in in vivo models of angiogenesis where bi-directional signalling mediates juxtracrine cell — cell contact, cell adhesion to extracellular matrix and cell migration30, 31,32.

In addition to the niacin it supplies, brown rice may also help raise blood levels of nitric oxide, a small molecule known to improve blood vessel dilation and to inhibit oxidative (free radical) damage of cholesterol and the adhesion of white cells to the vascular wall (two important steps in the development of atherosclerotic plaques).

Your endothelial cells release nitric oxide, von Willebrand factors, and adhesion molecules, which all contribute to vascular homeostasis

Vascular endothelial dysfunction promotes vasoconstriction and favors platelet aggregation, white blood cell adhesion, and smooth muscle cell proliferation.
