## Abstract Pigment epithelium‐derived factor (PEDF), a glycoprotein with pleiotropic functions, is naturally occuring in the eye and considered as crucial to prevent pathological angiogenesis. Since retinal glial (Müller) cells produce PEDF, the authors have studied its impact on glial–endothelial
## Abstract In order to develop a biomimetic polymer for cell recognition, we synthesized poly [3‐O‐(4′‐vinylbenzyl)‐D‐glucose] (PVG), a polystyrene derivative with reduced glucose moiety, and studied the specific interaction of this PVG with erythrocytes, carried by a glucose transporter (GLUT‐1),
The membrane potential of cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells was assessed by a fluorescent probe as an alternative to direct methods. We used the fluorescent cationic dye rhodamine 6G, a lipophilic probe with high permeability in cell membranes. A linear relationship was obtained between fluor
