How T cells trigger the dissociation of the endothelial receptor phosphatase VE-PTP from VE-cadherin.

The vascular endothelial (VE) receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (VE-PTP) associates with VE-cadherin and supports endothelial cell contact integrity. This complex is rapidly dissociated by adhesion of leukocytes to endothelial cells or by vascular endothelial growth factor. We have shown recently that this dissociation is indeed required for the opening of endothelial cell contacts during l...

Enumeration of Tree Properties by Na Ve Methods

This paper studies the problem of how much space is saved, on average, when a TRIE is pruned back to a minimal discriminating preex. Exact gures (on average, half the space is saved) are given for binary trees. All trees with n nodes and m leaves are assumed equally likely. The calculations are based on an unusual form of recurrence relation.

Angiogenesis: the VE-cadherin switch.

Because angiogenesis is a key step in a number of pathologic processes, including tumor growth and atherosclerosis, many research studies have investigated the regulatory signals active at various stages of vascular invasion. The differential activities of the endothelial junction protein vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin reflect the versatile behavior of endothelial cells between vascular qui...

Breaking the VE-cadherin bonds.

Exchanges between the blood compartment and the surrounding tissues require a tight regulation by the endothelial barrier. Recent reports inferred that VE-cadherin, an endothelial specific cell-cell adhesion molecule, plays a pivotal role in the formation, maturation and remodeling of the vascular wall. Indeed, a growing number of permeability inducing factors (PIFs) was shown to elicit signali...
