Regulation of extravascular coagulation by microvascular permeability.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Extravascular coagulation is a prominent feature of such important pathological processes as cellular immunity and neoplasia and has been thought to result from procoagulants associated with the inflammatory or tumor cells peculiar to these entities. It was found that increased microvascular permeability alone is sufficient to induce equivalent extravascular coagulation in several normal tissues. The results indicate that saturating levels of procoagulant are present even in normal tissues and that microvascular permeability is a rate-limiting step in extravascular coagulation.

In addition to its effects on vascular tone, nitric oxide (NO) has been suggested to function as a participant in fluid homeostasis affecting interactions between the endothelium and circulating inflammatory cells. The role of NO in the increased microvascular permeability of acute lung injury, however, remains controversial. We investigated the hypothesis that NO opposes increases in pulmonary...

Serial measurements of lung extravascular accumulation of 113mIndium-transferrin were made in a patient with acute respiratory failure during the development of the adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Abnormality of this index of pulmonary microvascular permeability antedated radiological change and appeared to predict the onset of frank ARDS.
متن کاملEndothelial LSP1 Modulates Extravascular Neutrophil Chemotaxis by Regulating Nonhematopoietic Vascular PECAM-1 Expression.
During inflammation, leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions generate molecular signals that regulate cell functions. The Ca(2+)- and F-actin-binding leukocyte-specific protein 1 (LSP1) expressed in leukocytes and nonhematopoietic endothelial cells is pivotal in regulating microvascular permeability and leukocyte recruitment. However, cell-specific function of LSP1 during leukocyte recruitment ...

We frequently study processes that alter microvascular permeability in the heart. Myocardial microvascular permeability has been estimated by determining the filtration independent reflection coefficient for beta-lipoprotein (sigma beta-LIPO). This technique requires the measurement of myocardial lymph flow rate and the lymph-to-plasma protein concentration ratio. Unfortunately, it is a nonsurv...
