Indeed, since the early 1980s, the accumulating knowledge of the endothelial cell structure as well as of the functional properties of the endothelial cells shifted their role from a passive membrane or barrier to a complex tissue with complex functions adaptable to needs specific in time and location.

In addition to its role as a selective permeability barrier, the endothelial cell is a unique multifunctional cell with critical basal and inducible metabolic and synthetic functions.

Angiogenesis is a process that involves endothelial cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and tube formation, and inhibition of these processes has implications for angiogenesis-mediated disorders.

Mechanical forces modulate endothelial cell functions through several mechanisms including regulation of gene transcription. ... Cyclic pressure is, therefore, a mechanical force that modulates endothelial cell functions (such as proliferation) by activating a specific transcriptional program.

This may cause endothelial cell activation, dysfunction and initiate inflammatory events. ... • Aerobic exercise and weight reduction can decrease postprandial triglyceridemia and thus atherogenic remnant lipoproteins, as well as decrease endothelial cell activation by free fatty acids and lipoprotein remnants.

BAECs were treated with either unconditioned media, HPCM (0–25% vol/vol), or Escherichia coli-conditioned media for 24 h, and cell functions were monitored. Vac+ HPCM significantly decreased BAEC ... 1. Effect of Helicobacter pylori-conditioned medium (HPCM) on bovine aortic endothelial cell (BAEC) functions.

Epidemiological and clinical studies provide compelling support for a causal relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and endothelial dysfunction, ... BAECs were treated with either unconditioned media, HPCM (0–25% vol/vol), or Escherichia coli-conditioned media for 24 h, and cell functions were monitored.

Polyploid endothelial cells are found in aged and atherosclerotic arteries. However, whether increased chromosome content has an impact on endothelial cell function is unknown. We show here that human aortic endothelial cells become tetraploid as they approach replicative senescence.
