Glomerular microvascular endothelial cells

Fig. 3 Brief description of method used for isolation and purification of glomerular microvascular endothelial cells and proximal tubular epithelial cells. Taken from Jennings P. 2001 [12]...

For example, glomerular microvascular endothelial cells in culture should maintain the characteristic fenestration, the presence of Weibel-Palade bodies (both observed by transmission electron microscopy), the basal expression of von Willebrand factor and CD 31 (plate-let-endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1) and the binding of lectin Ulex Europaeus (for human cells) [18,19]. 

The mixed cell culture is Glomerular microvascular incubated with antibodies endothelial cells grow to...
