Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPotential of HMEC-1 Line and HUVEC Primary Culture Cells to Study the Neonatal IgG Fc Receptor in vitroLuz Belinda Ortiz-Alegría, Irma Cañedo-Solares, Felipe Vadillo-Ortega et al.The neonatal IgG Fc receptor (FcRn) plays an important role in IgG homeostasis and immunity passive transfer. Fine points regarding these mechanisms, however, are still emerging. In order to obtain information about these phenomena, it is essential to have in vitro models of endothelium that express this receptor. In this study we chose two widely used models of human endothelial … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2016 · 9,446 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgressive LDL Reduction to Very Low Levels Improves Dimeric Nitric Oxide Synthase, Nitric Oxide Bioavailability and Reduces Peroxynitrite in Endothelial Cells during HyperglycemiaR. Preston Mason, Hazem Dawoud, Samuel C.R. Sherratt et al.Circulating levels of glucose and LDL influence Endothelial Cell (EC) function in a highly interactive manner as evidenced by nitric oxide production and coupling of endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) dimer. Here, we report on the status of eNOS function in Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) cultured under normo- and hyperglycemic (250 mg/dL) condition followed by exposure to increasing … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 2 May 2019 · 8,356 accessesView PDF Cite
