Partial pressure of extracellular oxygen influences a number of major cellular functions. The purpose of this study was to determine if the proliferation, morphology, and synthesis of proteins important in the function of skin microvascular endothelial cells were significantly altered by an extracel

## Abstract To favor bone reconstitution with biomaterials endothelial cells should maintain proper functions to drive angiogenesis. To this aim nanocrystals of hydroxyapatite (HA) have been synthesized and characterized on endothelial cells. Microvascular endothelial cells have been exposed to sto
## Abstract An elevated level of homocysteine (Hcy) limits the growth and induces apoptosis. However, the mechanism of Hcyβinduced programmed cell death in endothelial cells is largely unknown. We hypothesize that Hcy induces intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production that leads to the
## Abstract Pertussis toxin (PTX) is an ancillary adjuvant used to elicit experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), the principal autoimmune model of multiple sclerosis. One mechanism whereby PTX potentiates EAE is to increase bloodβbrain barrier (BBB) permeability. To elucidate further the me
Diabetic microangiopathy has been implicated as a fundamental feature of the pathological complications of diabetes including retinopathy, neuropathy, and diabetic foot ulceration. However, previous studies devoted to examining the deleterious effects of elevated glucose on the endothelium have been
