Influence of site, clone, age, and growth rate on wood properties of three Populus X Euramericana clones
… breast height. Anatomical properties, including vessel lumen diameter, area and shape factor, number of vessels per unit area, fiber lumen diameter and area, fiber length, ray area, and cell wall area percent were measured by an image analyzer. Site, clone and/or their interaction significantly …

OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY FOR NEUROSURGEY AND CANCER RESEARCH
… tools (I.D. ~ 1mm), detect the at-risk blood vessels, and identify tissue micro-landmarks. This promising guidance tool improves the safety and the accuracy of needle-based procedures, which are currently performed without imaging feedback. Despite the great imaging capability, OCT is limited …

Radiation effects on the blood-brain barrier
… boron-containing compounds are restricted to the lumen of the blood vessel, the resulting high-LET alpha and lithium particles cannot deposit their energy in the normal cells beyond the vasculature after the target is exposed to thermal neutrons. This allows for a 2- to 3-fold increase in the …

Blood Vessel Development
… Cardiovascular function depends on patent blood vessel formation by endothelial cells. In this dissertation, a careful analysis of different aspects of blood vessel development was conducted in order to expand our understandings of the biology of blood vessel. In brief, Chapter 2 provides an in …

Tissue repair in lung disorders
… with obliterative bronchilitis have an enlarged vessel lumen and a larger endothelial layer area, which has been shown to be correlated to more fibrocytes in the tissue. A correlation was found between the numbers of fibrocytes identified in tissue and structural changes in the lung. In …

Clinical and Biological Aspects of Cardiovascular microRNA
… and oxidation of low-density lipoprotein in the vessel wall followed by endothelial inflammation, infiltration of monocytes and proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells towards the vessel lumen. microRNA (miRNA) is a class of short non-coding RNA which regulate gene expression …

Engineered models of the lymphatic stroma to study cell and fluid transport
… Across the body, local lymphatic vessels collect waste in the form of lymph and deliver it to nearby lymph nodes (LNs) to be filtered and screened for pathogens. With broad implications in adaptive immunity, cancer metastasis, and cancer treatment, developing novel in vitro models …

Angiogenesis and angioregression gene expression analyses in swine corpus luteum
… survival as well as vascular permeability and vessel lumen formation. During vascular invasion and apoptosis process, the remodelling of the extracellular matrix is essential for the correct evolution of the CL, particularly by the action of specific class of proteolytic enzymes known as matrix …

MAPK and pro-inflammatory mediators in the walls of brain blood vessels following cerebral ischemia
… integrity of brain tissue but affects also blood vessels, partly through the activation of inflammatory events and excess production of vasoconstrictor substances and increased receptor expression [17]. The early inflammatory response, which often is associated with the blood vessels, starts …
