Radiology. 1999; 212:655. Venous Endothelial Biopsy pediatric J-wire Endothelial cells were harvested from a forearm vein by scraping 3 J-wires per each vein access were sequentially inserted through a 20gauge angiocath Advantages of venous vs. arterial endothelial biopsy • Venous endothelial biopsy is less invasive and more relialble • Requires little training and technical expertise • It is a procedure which can be performed repetitively in patients, even in the out-coming patients. • It represent a reliable, minimally invasive approach to monitor the expression of genes in the endothelium over time, and to correlate it with clinical development or progression of vascular disease (i.e. diabetic vascular complications) Endothelial Biopsy 1) Biopsy 3 wires each arm 2) Slide preparation for Protein immunofluorescent analysis 3) EC isolation RNA extraction and amplification microarray Real time PCR Within 60’ incubation with magnetic Beads coniugated with ab anti CD146 Gene expression analysis •Purification •RNA extraction •Amplification •Microarray analysis •Real time PCR Protein Analysis Quantitative Immunofluorescence Nucleus (DAPI) Microarray Analysis Von Willebrand Real time PCR Protein of interest Purification of Endothelial Cells using Magnetic Beads CD146 EC leukocytes endothelial specific iron bead antibody magnet Chain of Events Leading to CV Mortality Coronary thrombosis Myocardial ischemia Myocardial infarction Arrhythmia and loss of Sudden death Neurohormonal muscle activation Remodeling CAD Ventricular dilatation Atherosclerosis LVH Diabetes Risk factors Hyperlipidemia Hypertension Insulin resistance Adapted from Dzau V, Braunwald E.

Circulation. 111:58, 2005 FMD in Young Type 1 Diabetics Early Endothelial Dysfunction • Twenty-six diabetics (23.4 ± 5.8 years) and 36 healthy volunteers (23.1 ± 2.8 years) were recruited. The duration of diabetes was 9.2 ± 5.3 years; metabolic control was moderate (HbA1c 7.6 ± 1.0%) and IMT was normal in both groups. • FMD was significantly impaired in type 1 diabetics (7.13 ± 0.43 vs. 8.77 ± 0.43%; p = 0.002). The FMD grade was associated with diabetes and age. Patients with a good metabolic control (HbA1c ≤ 7.0%) had a better FMD. Conclusion: In type 1 diabetics, even without preclinical or clinical atherosclerosis, endothelial function is already disturbed and can be detected using ultrasonography Hurks R Europ J Vasc Endovasc Surg 2009 Endo PAT 2000: Hearing Heart Disease • At the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. 50% percent of pts.who arrive at ER with heart attacks don't have conventional risk factors," such as high cholesterol or blood pressure and…….."Endothelial function may be the missing link." • The study's senior author is Mayo cardiologist Dr. Amir Lerman • It will become routine at Mayo in the next 2 years • the technology, which involves "listening" to minute vascular functions through sensors attached to a patient's index fingers and interpreting the readings via software. Results are presented on a scale from 1 to 5: Healthy adults score around 3, while a mark below 1.7 raises “red flags” • The EndoPAT was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2003 Endopat 2000 Endothelial Remodeling Oxidative stress induces senescence of endothelial cells. This is reflected in detachment of endothelial cells or parts of the endothelial cell membrane (endothelial microparticles (EMPs)) Vascular integrity becomes dependent on the incorporation of circulating progenitor cells (EPCs) Deanfield, J.
