Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidant stress and endothelial cell dysfunction.

TL;DR: Recent findings on the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which ROS signal events leading to impairment of endothelial barrier function and promotion of leukocyte adhesion are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of vascular endothelial barrier function

TL;DR: Current research is in the identification of protein substrates of PKC isozymes, the specific role of their phosphorylation in barrier function, and determining the precise role of MLCK in modulation of endothelial barrier function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shear stress stimulates phosphorylation of eNOS at Ser(635) by a protein kinase A-dependent mechanism.

TL;DR: The results suggest that shear stress stimulates eNOS by two different mechanisms: 1) PKA- and PI3K-dependent and 2) Pka-dependent but PI3k-independent pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of increased endothelial permeability.

TL;DR: The increase in endothelial permeability in response to inflammatory mediators such as thrombin and histamine is accompanied by reversible cell rounding and interendothelial gap formation, suggesting that the predominant transport pathway is a diffusive one (i.e., via cellular junctions (paracellular transport)).
Journal ArticleDOI

6-Hydroxydopamine-induced alterations in blood-brain barrier permeability.

TL;DR: Assessment of BBB integrity by examining the leakage of FITC‐labeled albumin or horseradish peroxidase from the vasculature into parenchyma in animals exposed to the DA neurotoxin 6‐hydroxydopamine (6OHDA) suggests that the events associated with DA neuron loss compromise BBB function.
