Endothelial cell junctions maintain vascular integrity. This review details their molecular makeup and roles in vessel formation and permeability.

Area of Science:

  • Cell biology
  • Vascular biology
  • Biochemistry

Context:

  • Endothelial cell-cell junctions are crucial for maintaining the integrity of the vascular system.
  • These junctions, analogous to epithelial junctions, include tight junctions, adherens junctions, gap junctions, and complexus adherentes.
  • Recent advancements have elucidated the molecular components and interactions within these endothelial junctions.

Purpose:

  • To review the molecular components and interactions of endothelial cell-cell junctions.
  • To discuss the role of these junctions in linking the cell membrane to the cytoskeleton.
  • To explore the contribution of endothelial junctions to vessel formation and permeability.

Summary:

  • Endothelial cell-cell junctions are complex structures essential for vascular integrity.
