The endothelial barrier strictly maintains vascular and tissue homeostasis‚ and therefore modulates many physiological processes such as angiogenesis‚ immune responses‚ and dynamic exchanges throughout organs. Consequently‚ alteration of this finely tuned function may have devastating consequences for the organism.
