Circulating endothelial cells and vasculitis.
Systemic vasculitides are a heterogeneous group of disorders with inflammation of blood vessels as their common pathogenetic hallmark. They often pose difficulties with regard to diagnosis and monitoring of disease activity, both at the initial presentation and during follow-up. Novel markers of disease activity are therefore eagerly awaited. Circulating endothelial cells have recently emerged ...
متن کاملCirculating Endothelial Cells in Vasculitis
Damage to microvascular endothelial cells is the hallmark of small-vessel vasculitis. Based on the histology, however, an intriguing question has long been unanswered: Given that cells undergo detachment from the basement, what happens to these cells and can we detect them in peripheral blood? Moreover, it seemed reasonable to assume that the number of circulating endothelial cells would reflec...

The vascular endothelium is a specific organ consisting of the endothelial cell (EC) monolayer, weighting about 1 kg which makes a unique border between the circulating blood and the underlying tissues. Because of its strategic location, the endothelium interacts with cellular and neurohumoral mediators, thus controlling the vascular contractile state and cellular composition. Endothelial cells...

model. To compare the translational efficiencies of normal and mutant TPO mRNAs, the DG mutation was introduced into the 58-UTR of TPO cDNA by recombinant polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and subcloned into the pcDNA3 vector, as previously described.2 Mutant and control TPO mRNAs were transcribed in vitro using T7 polymerase and translated in reticulocyte lysate in the presence of 35S-methionine...
