SICA-mediated cytoadhesion of Plasmodium knowlesi-infected red blood cells to human umbilical vein endothelial cells
Zoonotic malaria due to Plasmodium knowlesi infection in Southeast Asia is sometimes life-threatening. Post-mortem examination of human knowlesi ...

Enhancement of endothelial function and attenuation of portal vein injury using mesenchymal stem cells carrying miRNA-25-3p
The aims of this study were to determine whether human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hucMSCs) modified by miRNA-25-3p (miR-25-3p)...
-
Gene regulation for inflammation and inflammation resolution differs between umbilical arterial and venous endothelial cells
Systemic inflammation affects the whole vasculature, yet whether arterial and venous endothelial cells differ in their abilities to mediate...
-
The effects of inhibition and siRNA knockdown of collagen-binding integrins on human umbilical vein endothelial cell migration and tube formation
Blood vessels in the body are lined with endothelial cells which have vital roles in numerous physiological and pathological processes. Collagens are...
-
The effect of circulating iron on barrier integrity of primary human endothelial cells
Iron is hypothesized to be one of the contributors to cardiovascular disease and its levels in the circulation may correlate with cardiovascular...

Homocysteine metabolites inhibit autophagy by upregulating miR-21-5p, miR-155-5p, miR-216-5p, and miR-320c-3p in human vascular endothelial cells
Nutritional and genetic deficiencies in homocysteine (Hcy) metabolism lead to hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) and cause endothelial dysfunction, a...

X-irradiated umbilical cord blood cells retain their regenerative effect in experimental stroke
Although regenerative therapy with stem cells is believed to be affected by their proliferation and differentiation potential, there is insufficient...

Effect of TNFα stimulation on expression of kidney risk inflammatory proteins in human umbilical vein endothelial cells cultured in hyperglycemia
We recently identified a kidney risk inflammatory signature (KRIS), comprising 6 TNF receptors (including TNFR1 and TNFR2) and 11 inflammatory...

Endothelial CD34 expression and regulation of immune cell response in-vitro
Endothelial cells cover the lining of different blood vessels and lymph nodes, and have major functions including the transport of blood, vessel...

Macrophages enhance lipopolysaccharide induced apoptosis via Ang1 and NF-κB pathways in human umbilical vein endothelial cells
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) could induce apoptosis and dysfunction of endothelial cells. We aimed to reveal the effects of macrophages on cell...
-
Direct reprogramming of human umbilical vein- and peripheral blood-derived endothelial cells into hepatic progenitor cells
Recent advances have enabled the direct induction of human tissue-specific stem and progenitor cells from differentiated somatic cells. However, it...
-
Ultrastructural features mirror metabolic derangement in human endothelial cells exposed to high glucose
High glucose-induced endothelial dysfunction is the early event that initiates diabetes-induced vascular disease. Here we employed Cryo Soft X-ray...

Purification and characterization of human adipose-resident microvascular endothelial progenitor cells
Human adipose tissue is a rich source of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) and vascular endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). However, no standardized...
-
Isolation of circulating endothelial cells provides tool to determine endothelial cell senescence in blood samples
Circulating endothelial cells (CEC) are arising as biomarkers for vascular diseases. However, whether they can be utilized as markers of endothelial...
-
Transcriptomic analyses reveal proinflammatory activation of human brain microvascular endothelial cells by aging-associated peptide medin and reversal by nanoliposomes
Medin is a common vascular amyloidogenic peptide recently implicated in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia and its pathology remains...
