2. Endothelial dysfunction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endothelial_dysfunction

   Current measurements of endothelial function via FMD vary due to technical and physiological factors. Furthermore, a negative correlation between percent flow mediated dilation and baseline artery size is recognised as a fundamental scaling problem, leading to biased estimates of endothelial function.

3. Wound healing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wound_healing

   Endothelial activation: As the wound macrophages switches from inflammatory to healing mode, it begins to secrete endothelial chemotactic and growth factors to attract adjacent endothelial cells. Activated endothelial cells respond by retracting and reducing cell junctions, loosening themselves from their embedded endothelium.

4. Endothelial activation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endothelial_activation

   Endothelial activation is a proinflammatory and procoagulant state of the endothelial cells lining the lumen of blood vessels. [1] It is most characterized by an increase in interactions with white blood cells (leukocytes), and it is associated with the early states of atherosclerosis and sepsis , among others. [ 2 ]

6. Angiogenesis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angiogenesis

   As well as stimulating blood vessel growth, aFGF (FGF-1) and bFGF (FGF-2) are important players in wound healing. They stimulate the proliferation of fibroblasts and endothelial cells that give rise to angiogenesis and developing granulation tissue; both increase blood supply and fill up a wound space/cavity early in the wound-healing process.

7. Hemostasis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemostasis

   The blood clot contains the secondary hemostasis plug with blood cells trapped in it. This is a necessary step for wound healing , but it has the ability to cause severe health problems if the thrombus becomes detached from the vessel wall and travels through the circulatory system; If it reaches the brain, heart or lungs it could lead to ...

8. Vascular endothelial growth factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_endothelial...

   Vascular endothelial growth factor-R3 has been detected in lymphatic endothelial cells in CL of many species, cattle, buffalo and primate. [23] In addition to binding to VEGFRs, VEGF binds to receptor complexes consisting of both neuropilins and VEGFRs. This receptor complex has increased VEGF signalling activity in endothelial cells (blood ...

9. Local blood flow regulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_blood_flow_regulation

   These endothelial products include nitric oxide and endothelin-1 that are released in response to either chemical stimuli, like histamine, or increased shear stress on the blood vessel (meaning the amount of stress exerted by blood on the blood vessel walls). While nitric oxide causes vasodilation, endothelin-1 causes vasoconstriction.
