Endothelial dysfunction - a major mediator of diabetic vascular disease.
The vascular endothelium is a multifunctional organ and is critically involved in modulating vascular tone and structure. Endothelial cells produce a wide range of factors that also regulate cellular adhesion, thromboresistance, smooth muscle cell proliferation, and vessel wall inflammation. Thus, endothelial function is important for the homeostasis of the body and its dysfunction is associate...

Healthy endothelium plays a central role in cardiovascular control. Therefore endothelial dysfunction (ED), which is characterized by an imbalance between relaxing and contracting factors, procoagulant and anticoagulant substances, and between proinflammatory and antiinflammatory mediators, may play a particularly significant role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseas...

متن کاملEndothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular disease
INTRODUCTION The endothelium, by area alone, is one of the largest organs in the body comprised of up to trillion cells, weighing over 1 kg, and covering nearly 3m in a 70 kg male. Moreover, it interacts with nearly every system in the body, and has been implicated in end organ diseases of systems such as neurologic, renal, hepatic, vascular, dermatologic, immunologic, and of course cardiac. Th...
