The endothelial glycocalyx: a potential barrier between health and vascular disease : Current …

Expressed on the endothelial cell (EC) surface of blood vessels, the glycocalyx (GCX), a
mixture of carbohydrates attached to proteins, regulates the access of cells and molecules in …

This review aims at presenting state-of-the-art knowledge on the composition and functions
of the endothelial glycocalyx. The endothelial glycocalyx is a network of membrane-bound …

Rationale: The endothelial cell glycocalyx (GCX) is a mechanosensor that plays a key role in
protecting against vascular diseases. We have previously shown that age/disease mediated …

The glycocalyx is crucial for normal endothelial function. It also tethers extracellular
superoxide dismutase (SOD3), which protects the endothelium against oxidative damage …

The endothelial glycocalyx is a dynamic structure integral to blood vessel hemodynamics
and capable of tightly regulating a range of biological processes (ie, innate immunity …

The etiology of the pregnancy syndrome preeclampsia is still unclear, while most
hypotheses center on the placenta as the major contributor of the syndrome. Especially …

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-related multisystem disorder characterized by altered
trophoblast invasion, oxidative stress, exacerbation of systemic inflammatory response, and …

Objective: Endocan, a dermatan sulphate proteoglycan produced by endothelial cells, is
considered a biomarker for endothelial cell activation/dysfunction. Preeclampsia is …
