Endothelial progenitor cell subsets and preeclampsia: Findings and controversies.
Vascular remodeling is an essential component of gestation. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play an important role in the regulation of vascular homeostasis. The results of studies measuring the number of EPCs in normal pregnancies and in preeclampsia have been highly controversial or even contradictory because of some variations in technical issues and different methodologies enumerating t...
متن کاملEndothelial cell dysfunction in preeclampsia.
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific syndrome of hypertension and proteinuria and one of the leading causes of perinatal morbidity and mortality. The pathogenesis of preeclampsia, although not entirely clear, is typically abnormal placental implantation, followed by endothelial dysfunction with subsequently resulting vasospasm, coagulopathy, or changes in capillary permeability; this underscore...
متن کاملRadiation-induced expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 in cerebral endothelial cells
Background: Radiation-induced molecular changes on the endothelial surface of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM) may be used as markers for specific vascular targeting agents. In this study, we examined the level of expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) on brain endothelial cell surface after radiation treatment, with the aim of targeting the radiation-induc...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Serum and Saliva of Oral Lichen Planus and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma Patients
Background:Oral lichen planus (OLP) is considered as a potentially malignant disorder and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) may play a key role in cancer development. The aim of this study was to compare serum and saliva VEGF among patients with OLP, oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and a healthy control group. Methods:A cross sectional study was pe...
متن کاملClinical Significance of Anti-endothelial Cell Antibody in Renal Transplant Recipients
In order to evaluate the role of anti-endothelial cell antibody (AECA) in acute rejection in renal transplantation, serum AECA IgG titers were measured in 68 healthy controls, 111 chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients and 58 first renal transplant recipients. The AECA titer in hemodialysis patients was higher than in healthy controls (13.9 +/- 5.0 vs. 4.8 +/- 2.3 U/mL, p < 0.01). In transplant rec...
