Abstract
The concept of nanoparticle transport through gaps between endothelial cells (inter-endothelial gaps) in the tumour blood vessel is a central paradigm in cancer nanomedicine. The size of these gaps was found to be up to 2,000 nm. This justified the development of nanoparticles to treat solid tumours as their size is small enough to extravasate and access the tumour microenvironment. Here we show that these inter-endothelial gaps are not responsible for the transport of nanoparticles into solid tumours. Instead, we found that up to 97% of nanoparticles enter tumours using an active process through endothelial cells. This result is derived from analysis of four different mouse models, three different types of human tumours, mathematical simulation and modelling, and two different types of imaging techniques. These results challenge our current rationale for developing cancer nanomedicine and suggest that understanding these active pathways will unlock strategies to enhance tumour accumulation.

Abstract
Ocular hypertension in glaucoma develops due to age-related cellular dysfunction in the conventional outflow tract, resulting in increased resistance to aqueous humor outflow. Two cell types, trabecular meshwork (TM) and Schlemm's canal (SC) endothelia, interact in the juxtacanalicular tissue (JCT) region of the conventional outflow tract to regulate outflow resistance. Unlike endothelial cells lining the systemic vasculature, endothelial cells lining the inner wall of SC support a transcellular pressure gradient in the basal to apical direction, thus acting to push the cells off their basal lamina. The resulting biomechanical strain in SC cells is quite large and is likely to be an important determinant of endothelial barrier function, outflow resistance and intraocular pressure. This review summarizes recent work demonstrating how biomechanical properties of SC cells impact glaucoma. SC cells are highly contractile, and such contraction greatly increases cell stiffness. Elevated cell stiffness in glaucoma may reduce the strain experienced by SC cells, decrease the propensity of SC cells to form pores, and thus impair the egress of aqueous humor from the eye. Furthermore, SC cells are sensitive to the stiffness of their local mechanical microenvironment, altering their own cell stiffness and modulating gene expression in response. Significantly, glaucomatous SC cells appear to be hyper-responsive to substrate stiffness. Thus, evidence suggests that targeting the material properties of SC cells will have therapeutic benefits for lowering intraocular pressure in glaucoma.

Abstract
In the past, inflammation has been associated with infections and with the immune system. But more recent evidence suggests that a much broader range of diseases have telltale markers for inflammation. Inflammation is the basic mechanism available for repair of tissue after an injury and consists of a cascade of cellular and microvascular reactions that serve to remove damaged and generate new tissue. The cascade includes elevated permeability in microvessels, attachment of circulating cells to the vessels in the vicinity of the injury site, migration of several cell types, cell apoptosis, and growth of new tissue and blood vessels. This review provides a summary of the major microvascular, cellular, and molecular mechanisms that regulate elements of the inflammatory cascade. The analysis is largely focused on the identification of the major participants, notably signaling and adhesion molecules, and their mode of action in the inflammatory cascade. We present a new hypothesis for the generation of inflammatory mediators in plasma that are derived from the digestive pancreatic enzymes responsible for digestion. The inflammatory cascade offers a large number of opportunities for development of quantitative models that describe various aspects of human diseases.

Abstract
Patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome who die usually succumb to multiorgan failure as opposed to hypoxia. Despite appropriate resuscitation, some patients' symptoms persist on a downward spiral, apparently propagated by an uncontained systemic inflammatory response. This phenomenon is not well understood. However, a novel hypothesis to explain this observation proposes that it is related to the life-saving ventilatory support used to treat the respiratory failure. According to this hypothesis, mechanical ventilation per se, by altering both the magnitude and the pattern of lung stretch, can cause changes in gene expression and/or cellular metabolism that ultimately can lead to the development of an overwhelming inflammatory response-even in the absence of overt structural damage. This mechanism of injury has been termed biotrauma. In this review we explore the biotrauma hypothesis, the causal relationship between biophysical injury and organ failure, and its implications for the future therapy and management of critically ill patients.

Abstract
VEGF is more potent than histamine by a factor of 50,000 for inducing increased vessel permeability. Already in the first few minutes, hydraulic conductivity and diffusive permeability are significantly increased, followed by a longer-lasting, marked leakage over 20 h. Specific inhibition of the angiogenic, vasoactive, and permeability-inducing protein VEGF is now possible by new drugs, one of which is the first available (off-label) treatment in Germany for routine clinical use (Avastin). Retinal edema is composed of increased outflow of water and low molecular substances in the interstitial environment and is an important determinate of functional development in different ocular diseases. First experiences with the anti-hyperpermeability effect show early response and high potential in pathologic leakage. Future examinations have to assess when a permanent benefit can be achieved in respect to the other antiproliferative capabilities of the drug.

Abstract
The microvascular endothelial cell monolayer localized at the critical interface between the blood and vessel wall has the vital functions of regulating tissue fluid balance and supplying the essential nutrients needed for the survival of the organism. The endothelial cell is an exquisite “sensor” that responds to diverse signals generated in the blood, subendothelium, and interacting cells. The endothelial cell is able to dynamically regulate its paracellular and transcellular pathways for transport of plasma proteins, solutes, and liquid. The semipermeable characteristic of the endothelium (which distinguishes it from the epithelium) is crucial for establishing the transendothelial protein gradient (the colloid osmotic gradient) required for tissue fluid homeostasis. Interendothelial junctions comprise a complex array of proteins in series with the extracellular matrix constituents and serve to limit the transport of albumin and other plasma proteins by the paracellular pathway. This pathway is highly regulated by the activation of specific extrinsic and intrinsic signaling pathways. Recent evidence has also highlighted the importance of the heretofore enigmatic transcellular pathway in mediating albumin transport via transcytosis. Caveolae, the vesicular carriers filled with receptor-bound and unbound free solutes, have been shown to shuttle between the vascular and extravascular spaces depositing their contents outside the cell. This review summarizes and analyzes the recent data from genetic, physiological, cellular, and morphological studies that have addressed the signaling mechanisms involved in the regulation of both the paracellular and transcellular transport pathways.

Abstract
The clinical and experimental literature has unequivocally established that mechanical ventilation with large tidal volumes is injurious to the lung. However, uncertainty about the micromechanics of injured lungs and the numerous degrees of freedom in ventilator settings leave many unanswered questions about the biophysical determinants of lung injury. In this review we focus on experimental evidence for lung cells as injury targets and the relevance of these studies for human ventilator-associated lung injury. In vitro, the stress-induced mechanical interactions between matrix and adherent cells are important for cellular remodeling as a means for preventing compromise of cell structure and ultimately cell injury or death. In vivo, these same principles apply. Large tidal volume mechanical ventilation results in physical breaks in alveolar epithelial and endothelial plasma membrane integrity and subsequent triggering of proinflammatory signaling cascades resulting in the cytokine milieu and pathologic and physiologic findings of ventilator-associated lung injury. Importantly, though, alveolar cells possess cellular repair and remodeling mechanisms that in addition to protecting the stressed cell provide potential molecular targets for the prevention and treatment of ventilator-associated lung injury in the future.

Abstract
We tested the hypothesis that cells of ventilator-injured lungs are subject to reversible plasma membrane stress failure. Rat lungs were perfused with the membrane impermeable fluorescent marker propidium iodide and randomized to one of four ventilation strategies. Subpleural lung regions were imaged with confocal microscopy, and cell injury was quantified as the number of propidium iodide-positive cells per alveolus. The number of injured cells was significantly greater in lungs ventilated with large tidal volumes and zero end-expiratory pressure than in lungs ventilated with small tidal volumes and positive end-expiratory pressure (p < 0.01). Cell injury correlated with lung weight gain, change in dynamic compliance, and histologic injury scores. In a second set of experiments, lungs were mechanically ventilated for 30 minutes at high tidal volume settings, whereas propidium iodide was perfused either during or after injurious ventilation. Labeling after removal of injurious stress revealed significantly fewer injured cells (0.25 +/- 0.09 to 0.08 +/- 0.08, p < 0.01). We conclude that cells of ventilator-injured lungs are subject to reversible plasma membrane stress failure.

Abstract
We present de novo studies and review published efforts from our laboratory, spanning 12 years (from 1988 to 2000), where we have used ultrastructural approaches to study the functional anatomy of the microvasculature in man and animals in health and disease. These efforts have defined a new endothelial cell organelle, termed the vesiculo-vacuolar organelle (VVO), which participates in the regulated transendothelial cell passage of soluble macromolecules. The studies defining this organelle utilized ultrathin serial sections, three-dimensional computer-assisted reconstructions, and ultrastructural electron-dense tracers to establish luminal to abluminal transendothelial cell continuity of VVOs. Commonality of VVOs and caveolae is suggested by the ultrastructural anatomy of individual units of VVOs and caveolae, the presence of caveolin in both structures, and a mathematical analysis of morphometric data, all of which suggest that VVOs form from fusions of individual size units equivalent to vesicles of caveolar size. Ultrastructural studies have localized potent permeability factors and their specific receptors to VVOs in in vivo tumor and allergic inflammation models. Regulation of permeability through VVOs has been quantified and shown to be increased in tumor microvessels and in control vessels exposed to potent permeability-inducing mediators. The transendothelial cell passage of particulate macromolecules occurs by vacuolar transport in tumor vessels; in permeability factor-exposed control vessels, colloidal carbon traversed endothelial cells via the development of pores that did not communicate with or disrupt intercellular junctions by gap formation. Serial section and computer-assisted reconstructions established these findings and suggested the possible development of transendothelial cell pores from VVOs. Serial sectioning and computer-assisted three-dimensional reconstructions of ultrastructural samples of an acute inflammation model revealed a transendothelial cell traffic route for motile neutrophils and platelets in the absence of classical ultrastructural criteria for regulated secretion from either cell.

Abstract
We used video fluorescence microscopy of the vascular bed in the cremaster muscle of rat and mouse to study the transfer of plasmalemma vesicles (caveolae) across the microvessel barrier in situ. The water-soluble styryl pyridinium dye RH414, which adsorbs to and fluoresces at the membrane-water interface, was used as a marker for vesicular traffic through endothelial cells. Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), similar in molecular size to the styryl pyridinium probe, was used to mark for dye transfer by the paracellular pathway. Transcellular dye flux was determined by comparing the fluorescence intensities of RH414 and FITC on either side of the vessel wall (i.e., in microvessel lumen and in muscle tissue at various distances from the microvessel wall). We observed that RH414 accumulated in the interstitium more rapidly than FITC. We next studied the role of the 60-kDa albumin-binding glycoprotein gp60, hypothesized to activate transcellular permeability, in stimulating the transcellular vesicle traffic. Introduction of anti-gp60 antibody into the microvessel to cross-link and activate gp60 markedly increased the transvascular flux of RH414. Control isotype-matched antibody had no effect on the RH414 flux. The sterol-binding agent filipin, which disassembles caveolae, inhibited the RH414 flux induced by gp60 cross-linking. The transfer of styryl pyridinium dyes in intact microvessels suggests that plasmalemmal membrane traffic across the skeletal muscle microvessel barrier is a constitutively active process. The results indicate that the gp60-dependent pathway is important in regulating endothelial permeability in situ via a transcellular mechanism.

Abstract
The role of pulmonary hemodynamics is central to the pathogenesis of high altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE). High pulmonary artery pressure is a marker of HAPE susceptibility in hypoxia and to a lesser extent in normoxia. Compared to non-susceptible subjects high pulmonary artery pressure is present not only at rest, but also during exercise and sleep. The reasons for elevated pulmonary artery pressure in HAPE susceptible subjects include increased vasomotor tone, severe hypoxic vasoconstriction and diminished capacity of the pulmonary circulation. Overperfusion of some parts of the capillary bed and wave reflections in the pulmonary circulation may result in pressure transients in the peripheral circulation which are considerably greater than the pressure in the main arteries. The mechanism by which pulmonary hypertension causes the pulmonary circulation to leak involves hydraulic stress. Patchy vasoconstriction may expose parts of the capillary bed to high pressure resulting in stress failure of the capillary wall. The development of an inflammatory process may then occur after the initiation of the leak.

Abstract
This review addresses classical questions concerning microvascular permeabiltiy in the light of recent experimental work on intact microvascular beds, single perfused microvessels, and endothelial cell cultures. Analyses, based on ultrastructural data from serial sections of the clefts between the endothelial cells of microvessels with continuous walls, conform to the hypothesis that different permeabilities to water and small hydrophilic solutes in microvessels of different tissues can be accounted for by tortuous three-dimensional pathways that pass through breaks in the junctional strands. A fiber matrix ultrafilter at the luminal entrance to the clefts is essential if microvascular walls are to retain their low permeability to macromolecules. Quantitative estimates of exchange through the channels in the endothelial cell membranes suggest that these contribute little to the permeability of most but not all microvessels. The arguments against the convective transport of macromolecules through porous pathways and for the passage of macromolecules by transcytosis via mechanisms linked to the integrity of endothelial vesicles are evaluated. Finally, intracellular signaling mechanisms implicated in transient increases in venular microvessel permeability such as occur in acute inflammation are reviewed in relation to studies of the molecular mechanisms involved in signal transduction in cultured endothelial cells.
