Endothelium : molecular aspects of metabolic disorders

The functionality and existence span of endothelial cells have a wide influence upon the standard and expectancy of an individual's existence. in the course of low perfusion, the difference of other cells to hypoxia precipitate the competitive development of illnesses. even though the scientific experiences have convincingly proven that endothelial disorder happens at any time when the organic services or bioavailability of nitric oxide are impaired, in a majority of these situations, the function of endothelial cell-destructive technique cross-talk is but poorly understood.

27 [1] O2 sensing by model cell lines 11 between PC12 cells and type I carotid body cells is the molecular identity of the voltage-gated Ca2þ channels mediating stimulus-evoked secretion. 26,34 These two discrepancies highlight the limitations of PC12 cells as a model system for studying acute arterial chemoreception, but the two tissue types are likely to share common, O2-sensitive intracellular signaling pathways. Given their abundance and ease of maintenance, PC12 cells may yet prove more useful as a model system for studying cellular responses to chronic hypoxia at the molecular level.
