Toxic proteinaceous deposits and alterations in excitability and activity levels characterize
vulnerable neuronal populations in neurodegenerative diseases. Using in vivo two-photon …

Intussusceptive angiogenesis (IA) is a complementary method to sprouting angiogenesis (SA).
The hallmark of IA is formation of trans-capillary tissue pillars, their fusion and remodeling …

ER stress signaling is linked to the pathophysiological and clinical disease manifestations in
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Here, we have investigated ER stress-induced adaptive …

Aim The aim was to elucidate whether essential hypertension is associated with altered
capillary morphology and density and to what extent exercise training can normalize these …

The ultrastructure of capillaries in skeletal muscle was morphometrically assessed in vastus
lateralis muscle (VL) biopsies taken before and after exercise from 22 participants of two …

Intermittent claudication (IC) is the most commonly reported symptom of peripheral arterial
disease (PAD). Impaired limb blood flow is a major casual factor of lower exercise tolerance in …

Intussusceptive pillars, regarded as a hallmark of intussusceptive angiogenesis, have been
described in developing vasculature of many organs and organisms. The aim of this study …

During development, the heart grows by addition of progenitor cells to the poles of the
primordial heart tube. In the zebrafish, Wilms tumor 1 transcription factor a (wt1a) and b (wt1b) …

The tracheobronchial tree is lined by a mucociliary epithelium containing millions of multiciliated
cells. Their integrated oscillatory activity continuously propels an overlying pollution-…

It is unclear how microangiopathic changes in skeletal muscle vary among systemic vascular
pathologies. We therefore analyzed the capillary fine structure in skeletal muscle from …
