Three children have died in the most recent outbreak of measles. This article reviews the symptoms and treatment of measles.

The lobate shape of lymphatic endothelial cells puzzled researchers—now they’ve found it helps stabilize lymphatic capillaries against fluid pressure changes. Laura is an Assistant Editor for The ...

Oak-leaf, puzzle-like shapes and discontinuous cell–cell junctions are defining features of lymphatic capillary endothelial cells. A study by Schoofs et al. provides insights into the molecular ...

Glomerular endothelial cells (GEnC)characterised by non-diaphragmed fenestrations (60-80nm transcellular holes) in their peripheral cytoplasm. The fenestrations occupy a large proportion of the ...

and endothelial cells of the capillaries counted. The fields were more selective in the diabetic eyes than in the controls, for some attempt was made to avoid counting cells in areas of ...

Filtration is dependent on the unique structure of the capillary wall comprising layers of two key cells types, glomerular endothelial cells (GEnC) and podocytes, separated by a specialised basement ...

The finest of all these lymphatic vessels are called lymph capillaries. They have walls that are made up of just a single layer of lymphatic endothelial cells that are permeable to fluids ...
