The brain is one of the body’s most energy-demanding organs, accounting for 2 percent of the body’s weight but consuming 20 ...

Two separate teams of researchers have found a way to grow blood vessels within lab-grown organs. The creation of miniature organs in the lab, such as tiny replicas of hearts, livers, and lungs, has ...

General capillary endothelial cells were shown to interact with aerocytes along the capillary axis and expressing N-cadherin, which forms heterotypic adhesions with surrounding pericytes.

The endothelium represents a crucial regulator of vascular homeostasis. Since endothelial cells mainly rely on glycolysis rather than on oxidative phosphorylation for their ATP generation, this allows ...

Aurion will operate as a separate company with full support from Alcon to advance its clinical-stage allogeneic cell therapy asset, AURN001, into Phase 3 for corneal edema secondary to corneal ...

Throughout our lives, our bones are continuously remodeled to maintain strength, repair injuries and adapt to new stresses. Bone dynamics depend on two associated cell types: osteoblasts, which are ...

They also show that VECs differentiate into capillary cells, and that this remodeling is a response to lung injury, not one that occurs during normal lung development after birth.

Capillary endothelial cells (ECs) were cultured on gold electrodes in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)/glass microdevices. Our objective was to monitor the culture growth by electrical impedance ...
