The UIC team, led by Dr. Jalees Rehman, classified the subtypes by extracting lung tissue from mice engineered to express a fluorescent protein only in the blood vessel endothelial cells.

VECs line the inside of blood vessels in the lungs, playing an essential role in blood flow and angiogenesis, the creation of ...

Next, they increased FOXF1 gene expression in endothelial cells using a transgenic model of lung cancer. By increasing FOXF1 levels, they effectively inhibited lung tumor growth and metastasis ...

Though the researchers found single SARS-CoV-2-positive endothelial cells using dual RNA-ISH, most cases were negative for the S gene in the lung endothelial cells. Because COVID-19-related damage ...

A team led by the University of Sydney has identified red blood cell rupture at dying endothelial sites as a primary driver ...

The researchers first observed that four genes in the lung endothelial cells showed a particularly strong increase in activity three weeks after the onset of metastasis. The genes encode the ...

The findings have been reported in Nature. A layer of endothelial cells and a layer of epithelial cells compose the lung barrier, which has to be thin enough to allow oxygen to pass through but strong ...

The UIC team, led by Dr. Jalees Rehman, classified the subtypes by extracting lung tissue from mice engineered to express a fluorescent protein only in the blood vessel endothelial cells.
