The Structure and Function of the Endothelial Glycocalyx Layer
Over the past decade, since it was first observed in vivo, there has been an explosion in interest in the thin (∼500 nm), gel-like endothelial glycocalyx layer (EGL) that coats ...
Hypoxia induced disruption of the cardiac endothelial glycocalyx: implications for capillary permeability
The endothelial cell glycocalyx of continuous capillaries is sensitive to changes in PO2. The disruption of this surface coat may explain the reported increase in capillary perm...
Vasculoprotective properties of the endothelial glycocalyx: effects of fluid shear stress
Abstract. The endothelial glycocalyx exerts a wide array of vasculoprotective effects via inhibition of coagulation and leucocyte adhesion, by contributing to the vascular perme...
Oncotic pressures opposing filtration across non‐fenestrated rat microvessels
We hypothesized that ultrafiltrate crossing the luminal endothelial glycocalyx through infrequent discontinuities (gaps) in the tight junction (TJ) strand of endothelial clefts ...
Mechanotransduction and the glycocalyx
Abstract. Endothelial cells (ECs) line all blood vessel walls and are exposed to the mechanical forces of blood flow which modulate their function and play a role in vascular re...
