Endothelial cells (ECs) are sentinels of cardiovascular health. Their function is reduced by
the presence of cardiovascular risk factors, and is regained once pathological stimuli are …

Despite the great advances that the tissue engineering field has experienced over the last
two decades, the amount of in vitro engineered tissues that have reached a stage of clinical …

Endothelial cells (ECs) sense and respond to fluid flow and regulate immune cell trafficking
in all organs. Despite sharing the same mesodermal origin, ECs exhibit heterogeneous …

Despite the efforts devoted to drug discovery and development, the number of new drug
approvals have been decreasing. Specifically, cardiovascular developments have been …

Extensive injury of endothelial cells in blood vasculature, especially in the microcirculatory
system, frequently occurs in hosts suffering from sepsis and the accompanied systemic …

Endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) represent the most suitable cellular substrate to
induce revascularization of ischemic tissues. Recently, optical excitation of the light-sensitive …

Abstract 3D bioprinting technology is widely used to fabricate various tissue structures.
However, the absence of vessels hampers the ability of bioprinted tissues to receive oxygen …

In recent years, microphysiological system (MPS, also known as, organ-on-a-chip or tissue
chip) platforms have emerged with great promise to improve the predictive capacity of …

Endothelial colony‐forming cells (ECFCs) are derived from progenitor cells that circulate in
peripheral blood. Over the last two decades, human ECFCs have been isolated and studied …

Although elevated cholesterol and other recognised cardiovascular risk factors are important
in the development of coronary artery disease (CAD) and heart attack, the susceptibility of …
