Endothelial Cells under Mechanical and Humoral Stress

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSA,volume 193))

Abstract

Endothelial cells are the interface between blood components and the vessel wall. Alterations of these vascular cells provide changing conditions of the vessel wall surface. Considerations about blood-vessel wall interactions have to include the pathology of the endothelium. Complex in vivo and simplified in vitro models are necessary to advance in our knowledge about the pathophysiology of these particular cells. Two studies in our institute, an in vivo as well as an in vitro model, are described and their results discussed.
