Contributes to Maintenance of Endothelial Barrier Functions under Baseline Conditions …

Many diseases share the common feature of vascular leakage, and endothelial barrier
dysfunction is often the underlying cause. The subsequent stages of endothelial barrier …

cAMP-mediated signaling mechanisms may destabilize or stabilize the endothelial barrier,
depending on the origin of endothelial cells. Here, microvascular coronary [coronary …

Barrier function of endothelial cells (EC) was modulated using beta-adrenergic agonists, eg,
isoproterenol (ISO) and formoterol (FOR). To get a direct comparison between EC from …

Endothelial cells lining the vessels of the vasculature and the cell–cell junctions, which join
them, provide the primary barrier to the passage of fluids, immune cells, and …

ABSTRACT A principal function of endothelial cells is the formation of a barrier between the
blood and tissues. This barrier arises from the physical connections at cell-cell junctions …

We reported previously that increasing cAMP levels in endothelial cells attenuated ATP-
induced increases in hydraulic conductivity (L p), and that the activation of cGMP-dependent …

The vascular endothelium lining the inner surface of blood vessels serves as the first
interface for circulating blood components to interact with cells of the vascular wall and …

Endothelial cells line the inner surface of all blood vessels and constitute a selective barrier
between blood and tissue. Permeation of solutes across the endothelial cell monolayer …

Non‐technical summary Endothelial cells form the innermost layer of blood vessels and
build a barrier between blood and tissue. The permeability of this barrier is antagonistically …
