    WNK1 Collaborates with TGF-β in Endothelial Cell Junction Turnover and Angiogenesis

    The authors showed that inhibition of WNK1 promoted TGF-β–dependent degradation of the tyrosine kinase receptor AXL, which was involved in TGF-β–mediated cell migration and angiogenesis.

    Abstract

    EPDR1 Is a Non-Canonical Effector of Insulin-Mediated Angiogenesis Regulated by an Endothelial-Specific TGF-β Receptor Complex

    Scientists reported distinct crosstalk between the insulin receptor and endoglin/activin receptor-like kinase 1, an endothelial cell-specific TGF-β receptor complex essential for angiogenesis.

    mTOR Contributes to Endothelium-Dependent Vasorelaxation by Promoting eNOS Expression and Preventing eNOS Uncoupling

    Researchers showed that either the endothelium-specific deletion of Mtor to inhibit both mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) complexes, or depletion of Raptor or Rictor to disrupt mTORC1 or mTORC2, caused impaired endothelial-dependent vasodilatation.

    Senescent Endothelial Cells Are Predisposed to SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Subsequent Endothelial Dysfunction

    Scientists experimentally investigated the SARS-CoV-2 infection in cultured human endothelial cells (ECs), and performed a comparative analysis for post-infection molecular events using early passage and replicative senescent ECs.

    Combining TMZ and SB225002 Induces Changes of CXCR2 and VEGFR Signaling in Primary Human Endothelial Cells In Vitro

    Investigators elucidated the effect of combination therapy on gene and protein expression of HUVECs.

    Abstract

    Promotion of Angiogenesis In Vitro by Astragalus Polysaccharide via Activation of TLR4 Signaling Pathway

    Researchers investigated whether Astragalus polysaccharide promoted angiogenesis or vascularization via the TLR4 signaling pathway in a co-culture of outgrowth endothelial cells and primary human osteoblasts.

    Role of Endothelial Cells in Vascular Calcification

    The authors review the pathogenesis and research progress of vascular calcification (VC), expound the role of endothelial cells in VC, and focus on the regulatory factors underlying endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition, with a view to providing new concepts for VC prevention and treatment.
