Serotonin, norepinephrine, and histamine mediation of endothelial cell barrier function in vitro

Abstract: The effects of serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT), norepinephrine (NE), and histamine on endothelial cell barrier function were examined in vitro. Bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells grown to confluence on microcarriers formed a measurable barrier to the passage of a trypan blue dye-bovine serum albumin conjugate (TB-BSA) from the culture medium into the microcarrier matrix. Vascular smooth muscle (VSM) cells or Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts impeded TB-BSA diffusion only 42% and 56%, respectively, relative to BAE… Show more

“…However, we cannot rule out that a receptor-mediated transcytotic pathway [30][31] may be in part responsible for this enhanced permeability of HUVEC monolayers. A similar retraction of endo thelial cells with formation of gaps in monolayers and an increase in permeability is observed in response to vasoactive amines [32][33][34][35] and PAF [11,36]. Clark ct al.…”

“…44 The ability of BDMPs to pass through the endothelial barrier was measured in a transwell system, where confluent HUVECs cultured in the top chamber were first activated by histamine ( Figure 4D), which increases vascular permeability by inducing endothelial cells to contract. 45,46 BDMPs were then loaded onto the endothelial cells in the presence or absence of live or lyophilized platelets. After incubation for 3 hours at 37°C, the time when the highest level of BDMPs was found in the blood of FPI mice (Figure 1), BDMPs were detected in the bottom chamber when they were incubated with histamine-stimulated HUVECs and live, but not lyophilized, platelets ( Figure 4E).…”
