Meanings of capillary barrier in English

Although capillary barrier deterioration underlies major inflammatory lung pathology, barrier-enhancing strategies are not available.

Pericytes are mural cells that surround capillaries and control angiogenesis and capillary barrier function.

Results: Alteration of the alveolar- capillary barrier was noted at 2 hrs of high tidal volume ventilation.

We postulated that humans who chronically abuse alcohol will have similar alterations in alveolar- capillary barrier function.

Surprisingly, this treatment enhanced the capillary barrier, as indicated by quantification of the capillary hydraulic conductivity.

Damage to the alveolar capillary barrier leads to pulmonary ventilation disorder, blood perfusion disorder and oxygenation disorder.

Intratracheal delivery of CFH in mice causes acute lung injury with air space inflammation and alveolar- capillary barrier disruption.

However both diets resulted in a disturbance of the alveolar capillary barrier as indicated by enhanced BAL protein and lactate-dehydrogenase concentrations.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a clinical syndrome characterized by hypoxia, which is caused by the breakdown of the alveolar capillary barrier.
