..., Crispld2, Bcl6b, and Gja5 were differentially expressed in 2VO rats on day 7, but then returned to normal, whereas mRNA levels of Vwf and Trappc6a were upregulated after day 7. Immunohistochemistry showed that GJA5 and vWF were detected in endothelial cells, KCNJ8 in endothelial cells and astrocytes...

...Q.C. Yu; W.J. Mergner; R.D. Vigorito; J.H. Resau In order to understand the role of the postmortem interval (PMI) on endothelial cell changes both in human and rabbit aortas, we have examined the ultrastructural cytomorphologic alterations of these cells. Human aorta (HA) and rabbit aorta (RA) were...

... of the essential aspects is the relationship between the endothelial cell (EC) layer and the underlying components of the basement membrane (BM). The importance of the biological role of the individual components of the BM in the promotion of EC adhesion is investigated. In this study suspensions of bovine corneal...

...-MSH and ACTH is expressed in the skin on keratinocytes, dendritic cells, macrophages and endothelial cells. In monocytes, macrophages and dendritic cells α-MSH inhibits the production and activity of immunoregulatory and proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-2, IFNγ and IL-1. It downregulates...

... in situ, e.g. in organ culture. The aim of the present study was to examine the reliability and comparability between human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in a monolayer cell culture model and endothelial cells (EC) in organ culture, as well as in the native umbilical cord. Our results prove...
