Vascular endothelial-cadherin and vascular stability

E Dejana, C Giampietro - Current opinion in hematology, 2012 - journals.lww.com
In the past years, the research on angiogenesis was mostly directed to the definition of the
mechanisms able to modulate vascular growth. We now understand that in many pathological …

EndMT contributes to the onset and progression of cerebral cavernous malformations

…, N Rudini, R Cuttano, L Bravi, C Giampietro… - Nature, 2013 - nature.com
Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) is a vascular dysplasia, mainly localized within the
brain and affecting up to 0.5% of the human population. CCM lesions are formed by …

[HTML][HTML] Phosphorylation of VE-cadherin is modulated by haemodynamic forces and contributes to the regulation of vascular permeability in vivo

F Orsenigo, C Giampietro, A Ferrari, M Corada… - Nature …, 2012 - nature.com
Endothelial adherens junctions maintain vascular integrity. Arteries and veins differ in their
permeability but whether organization and strength of their adherens junctions vary has not …

[PDF][PDF] The Wnt/β-catenin pathway modulates vascular remodeling and specification by upregulating Dll4/Notch signaling

…, D Nyqvist, F Orsenigo, A Caprini, C Giampietro… - Developmental cell, 2010 - cell.com
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is evolutionary conserved signaling system that regulates cell
differentiation and organogenesis. We show that endothelial specific stabilization of Wnt/β-…
