Although many studies have focused on blood vessel development and new blood vessel
formation associated with disease processes, the question of how endothelial cells (ECs) …

The microvasculature is a heterogeneous, dynamic and versatile component of the systemic
circulation, with a unique ability to locally self‐regulate and to respond to organ demand and …

Supportive stromal cells of mesenchymal origins regulate vascular morphogenesis in
developmental, pathological, and regenerative contexts, contributing to vessel formation …

Linear and disturbed flow differentially regulate gene expression, with disturbed flow priming
endothelial cells (ECs) for a proinflammatory, atheroprone expression profile and …

We developed a microfluidic model of microcirculation containing both blood and lymphatic
vessels for examining vascular permeability. The designed microfluidic device harbors …

Numerous cell surface receptors, including tyrosine kinase and G protein‐coupled
receptors, play critical roles in endothelial cell function and blood vessel development …

Endothelial cells line all major blood vessels and serve as integral regulators of many
functions including vessel diameter, cellular trafficking, and transport of soluble mediators …

Microvascular barrier dysfunction represents a significant problem in clinical conditions
associated with trauma, burn, sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, ischemia …

The establishment of cadherin-dependent cell–cell contacts in human epidermal
keratinocytes are known to be regulated by the Rac1 small GTP-binding protein, although …

Fibronectin (FN) fibrillogenesis is an essential biological process mediated by α5β1 integrin
and cellular contractile forces. Assembly of a FN matrix by activated endothelial cells occurs …
