Description
Pratibha Bhalla and Ondine Cleaver open a 2024 article collection on the cells that line every blood vessel, arguing they sit at the center of vascular and metabolic disease. This single cell layer, they note, acts almost like a hormone organ, releasing factors that steer blood flow, pressure, and clotting. When overactivated, the same cells can falter and harm the tissues they serve.
The collection gathers reviews and studies on how these cells fail in conditions from diabetes to brain disorders, and on how repairing or regrowing them might treat disease. One review covers how surgery and anesthesia can breach the blood brain barrier in older patients. The editors present vessel lining repair as the future of therapy in this field. The issue aims to map targets for that work.
