“Vascular Endothelial Cells”  

Vascular Endothelial Cell

  In our body, vascular endothelial cells are highly specialized endothelial cells, that secrete vasoactive substances such as prostacyclin (PGI2), endothelin, and endothelium-derived relaxing factors (EDRF), which play an important role in the regulation of vascular tone.
  Vascular endothelial cells play a key role in a variety of pathophysiologic processes, such as angiogenesis, inflammation, cancer metastasis, and vascular diseases. *
