The human body contains over 70,000 miles of blood vessels, lined by a single layer of endothelial cells. This inner lining, ...

In a nutshell Researchers discovered how a specific genetic mutation (PIK3CA) changes the way blood vessel cancers grow and ...

the human body's massive network of vasculature can be waylaid by the vagaries of age. Indeed, growing older can impact the very process by which healthy new blood vessels are made, resulting in a ...

Picturing how our species might appear in the far future often invites wild speculation over stand-out features such as ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have uncovered how specialized cells surrounding small blood vessels, known ...

Blood vessel dysfunction in chronic diseases is worsened by the way specialised cells surround small blood vessels, latest ...

A study which harnesses a pioneering 3D printing technique to create tiny human blood vessel structures could eventually help end the use of animals to test new drugs. The groundbreaking research, ...

To create a model of the human circulatory system, biologist Mátyás Bittenbinder teamed up with chemist Jeroen Kool, both researchers at Vrije University Amsterdam. They cultured endothelial cells ...

Trapped immune cells laden with microplastics starve the brain of oxygen—mouse study links vascular blockages to memory loss and motor deficits, with lingering risks even after symptoms fade.
