endothelial cells

[Stem Cell Research & Therapy] The authors cultured rat Schwann cells, aortic endothelial cells, and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and then obtained BM-MSC-derived induced endothelial cells and induced osteoblasts.

[Journal of Translational Medicine] Downregulation of miR-15b-5p under HG conditions promoted proliferation, migration, and tube formation of human retinal vascular endothelial cells.

[International Immunopharmacology] Scientists showed that TNF-α significantly reduced the expression of SIRT6 protein and mRNA in a concentration- and time-dependent manner and increased the expression of monocyte chemotactic protein 1, interleukin (IL) -6 and IL-1β in human umbilical vein endothelial cells.

[Journal of Cell Science] Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) elongated, activated TAGLN promoter and increased TAGLN transcripts in angiogenesis model. Genetic disruption of TAGLN augmented angiogenic behaviors of HUVECs, as did the disruption of TAGLN2 and TAGLN3 genes.

[Circulation] Investigators generated tissue-specific "loss-" and "gain-of-function" models for endothelial nitric oxide synthase by using cell-specific Cre-induced gene inactivation or reactivation.

[Scientific Reports] In MC38 tumors, only endothelial cells (ECs) strongly express APJ, a cognate receptor for Apelin, indicating that EC-derived Apelin might regulate tumor formation in an autocrine manner.
