    Abstract

    Slit2-Robo Signaling Promotes Glomerular Vascularization and Nephron Development

    Researchers discovered a novel role of Slit2-Robo signaling in glomerular vascularization. Slit2 is a secreted polypeptide that bound to transmembrane Robo receptors and regulated axon guidance as well as ureteric bud branching and angiogenesis.

    Abstract

    Anthocyanins Activate Membrane Estrogen Receptors With Nanomolar Potencies to Elicit a Nongenomic Vascular Response Via NO Productio

    Nitric oxide (NO) fluorescent detection signal detected NO production in primary endothelial cells cultures incubated with anthocyanins or E2 in the absence and presence of estrogen receptor alpha or G protein‐coupled estrogen receptor selective antagonists.

    Abstract

    The COL-4A1 Polypeptide Destroy Endothelial Cells through the TGF-β/PI3K/AKT Pathway

    Human umbilical vascular endothelial cells were cultured with or without COL-4A1 and TNF-α. Cell Counting Kit-8, wound-healing, Transwell and tube formation assays were used to evaluate cell proliferation, migration and angiopoiesis.

    Gastrin Mediates Cardioprotection through Angiogenesis after Myocardial Infarction by Activating the HIF-1α/VEGF Signaling Pathway

    Researchers hypothesized that gastrin might protect against heart injury after myocardial infarction by promoting angiogenesis. Downregulation of HIF-1α expression by siRNA reduced the proliferation, migration and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

    Intercellular Crosstalk of Liver Sinusoidal Endothelial Cells in Liver Fibrosis, Cirrhosis and Hepatocellular Carcinoma

    Investigators summarize the current knowledge of how different crosstalk between liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and other liver cells, including hepatocytes, hepatic stellate cells, macrophages, immune cells in liver and extra cellular matrix contribute to the physiological function and the progression from liver fibrosis to cirrhosis, or even to hepatocellular carcinoma.
