Endothelial junction closing and opening maintain vascular integrity and homeostasis, and coordinate vascular permeability.
Conversely, expression of Fli1 in mouse endothelial cells controls vascular maturation and is required to maintain vascular integrity [ 49].
These pathways exert important vascular actions, such as maintaining vascular integrity, regulating cell cycle, and promoting vasculogenesis.
Endothelial cells play an important role in maintaining vascular homeostasis.
Precisely how folate maintains vascular function remains to be established.
Endothelium plays an integral role in maintaining vascular homeostasis.
NO is produced basally in the vascular system and maintains vascular tone.
The vascular endothelium normally maintains vascular tone through autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine-like functions [ 24].
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in maintaining vascular homeostasis.
Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF) plays critical roles in vasculogenesis, angiogenesis and in maintaining vascular homeostasis [ 1, 2].
