In a report published online in Diabetes, the authors showed that RUNX1 was upregulated
in vascular endothelial cells obtained from fibrovascular membranes in PDR patients.

In addition, when these transcription factors lose their function, terminal differentiation into the vascular endothelium (completion of differentiation) is completely suppressed, and genes that are key to differentiation
into vascular endothelial cells as well as transcription factors that maintain the undifferentiated state are adversely induced.
Necrotizing vasculitis was prominent in medium and large blood vessels, involving
vascular endothelial cells as well as the tunica media, and included lymphocytes, neutrophils, and eosinophils in cellular collections.
This activates the mast cells in these organs so that they undergo degranulation, releasing ready - made proteases such as chymase and tryptase, and synthesizing inflammatory mediators (leukotrienes and
vascular endothelial cell growth factor [VEGF]-RRB-.
Chlorogenic acids may exert protective effects against metabolic syndrome risk through their antioxidant properties, in particular
toward vascular endothelial cells, in which nitric oxide production may be enhanced, by promoting endothelial nitric oxide synthase expression.
Interferon -LCB- alpha -RCB- but Not Interleukin 12 Activates STAT4 Signaling in Human Vascular Endothelial Cells
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.
In addition, the contribution of iPS cells to the livers of chimeric mice was evaluated by immunofluorescence staining using antibodies against CD31 (a marker
of vascular endothelial cells) and AFP (a marker of liver cells).
This research helped to show that insulin resistance
in vascular endothelial cells can create a pro-inflammatory state marked by the heightened presence of certain cell adhesion proteins that make immune cells stick to endothelial cells, the first step in enabling the immune cells to travel from the blood stream to tissues.
ADRCs are a combination of cell types, such as adult stem cells,
vascular endothelial cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells.
Now applying the concept to tumor formation, Rask - Madsen and his colleagues discovered similar signs of a pro-inflammatory state in the mice with insulin receptors knocked - out in
vascular endothelial cells.
To assess the immunomodulatory role of iPSC - MSCs in vivo, Li et al. studied the immune response elicited following human
vascular endothelial cell (HUVEC) subcapsular kidney grafting in immunocompetent C57BL / 6 mice [4].
Exchange protein activated by cyclic AMP (Epac)- mediated induction of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS - 3) in
vascular endothelial cells.
In keeping with this, recent studies showed that flavanols, a subclass of flavonoids that is richly represented in natural cocoa beans, increase NO production by cultured human
vascular endothelial cells (16) and improve endothelium - dependent vasorelaxation (NO - dependent) in finger (2) and brachial (3) arteries of healthy humans.
Cardiovascular disease and renal disease for example are accelerated in patients with diabetes and AGEs have been shown to induce senescence in cell types related to these diseases, such as endothelial progenitor cells,
vascular endothelial cells and renal cells.
Ishikado, A. Sono, Y. Matsumoto, M. Robida - Stubbs, S. Okuno, A. Goto, M. King, G. Blackwell, K. Makinoa, T. Willow bark extract increases antioxidant enzymes and reduces oxidative stress through activation of Nrf2 in
vascular endothelial cells and Caenorhabditis elegans.
Lin, L., et al. «Protective effect of gypenosides against oxidative stress in phagocytes,
vascular endothelial cells and liver microsomes,» Cancer Biotherapy, 8 (3): 263 - 72, 1993.
Bartonella is a gram - negative, aerobic bacilli that infects primarily the erythrocytes and
vascular endothelial cells of its hosts.
