Stem cell-derived endothelial cell differentiation represents a rapidly advancing field that leverages the plasticity of pluripotent cells to generate functional vascular components. Central to the ...

The endothelial glycocalyx integrates mechanical signals with vascular biology, playing a vital role in health and disease, ...

A polygenic risk score (PRS) based on genes associated with endothelial cell function identifies patients at a higher risk of coronary artery disease, according to a new study. The risk score, which ...

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 ...

The rising incidence of cancer worldwide has led to an increasing number of surgeries that involve the removal of lymph nodes ...

Examining more than 1,000 blood vessels taken from deceased patients with COVID-19, they found that the endothelial cells that form the inner lining of blood vessels were damaged. The damage was ...

BACKGROUND: Oscillatory shear stress (OSS), resulting from disturbed blood flow, is implicated in atherosclerotic plaque formation by incompletely understood mechanisms. This study aims to elucidate ...

Many cells comprise the tumor microenvironment, but endothelial cells are particularly crucial. They line blood vessels, regulating blood flow and inflammation, and their cell junctions are the ...

A study aimed to compare corneal topographic and specular microscopic parameters both before and after patients received the Pfizer-BioNTech (BNT162b2) COVID-19 mRNA vaccine concluded that changes in ...

A team led by the University of Sydney has identified red blood cell rupture at dying endothelial sites as a primary driver of microvascular obstruction in COVID-19, bypassing the expected role of ...
