Example sentences for: endothelial
How can you use “endothelial” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
It has been shown that increasing amounts of Ang-2 can block the chemotactic activity of Ang-1 in endothelial cells [ 21 ] . Ang-2 alone did not stimulate corneal neovascularization, but the combination of Ang-2 and VEGF resulted in longer vessels with greater circumferential extent than those seen with VEGF alone [ 9 ] . This suggests that Ang-2 expression in the absence of VEGF leads to vessel regression, whereas expression of Ang-2 in the presence of VEGF potentiates angiogenesis.
Based on histologic evidence, glomerular endothelial cells have been invoked as being primarily involved in HUS renal injury [ 7 ] . In vitro studies have demonstrated that human glomerular endothelial cells (HGEN) bind Stx-1 and are modestly sensitive to the toxin's cytotoxic effect [ 8 ] . Recent work indicates that other renal cell types may be Stx targets in HUS: cultured human proximal tubule (HPT) [ 9 ] and human visceral glomerular epithelial (HGEC) [ 10 ] cells express abundant amounts of Gb3 and are highly sensitive to the cytotoxic effect of Stx-1.
The cells of interest in the majority of cases were those of epithelial origin, but eight specimens were also used for the isolation of tumor-associated stroma (fibroblast, endothelial and inflammatory cells) for comparison.
The dominance of Ang-2 over Ang-1 mRNA and protein in OA synovial tissue are in agreement with the inactive VEGF receptor 1 pathway (angiogenic pathway) in OA [ 24 ] . The Ang-2 mRNA expression pattern correlates with the Ang-2 immunostaining detected on endothelial cells.
We therefore sought to determine whether a similar mechanism could account for the resveratrol-mediated endothelial shape change.
