VEGF increases the permeability of sheep pleura ex vivo through VEGFR2 stimulation
(2014)
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a cytokine that increases vascular permeability to water and proteins and induces angiogenesis, has been implicated in the development of pleural effusions. Inflammatory and ...
Endothelin-1 Acutely Reduces the Permeability of Visceral Sheep Peritoneum In Vitro Through Both Endothelin-A and Endothelin-B Receptors
(2013)
Mesothelium is an important part of the peritoneal barrier for water and ion transport, essential for effective peritoneal dialysis (PD). Peritoneal fibrosis has been associated with PD treatment failure. Endothelin-1 ...
Postmortem Image Analysis of Sheep Cortical Leptomeningeal Space and Vasculature: Theoretical Implications on Brain Surface Dialysis
(2011)
The vascular surface distribution of the subarachnoid space has not been studied extensively. The aim of our study was to develop a method of computer-assisted estimation of the distribution of the vascular network in the ...
Animal models in peritoneal dialysis
(2015)
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been extensively used over the past years as a method of kidney replacement therapy for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). In an attempt to better understand the properties of the ...
