Pdgfr-beta Perivascular

PDGFR-beta perivascular cells are cells positioned around blood vessels that express platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta, a receptor tyrosine kinase involved in vascular organization and tissue homeostasis. When PDGF ligands bind the receptor, they trigger intracellular signaling that supports cell survival, proliferation, migration, and interactions with endothelial cells and the surrounding extracellular matrix. In immunology and infection research, these cells are studied as regulators of vessel stability, vascular remodeling, barrier function, and immune-cell movement through tissues. Characterizing PDGFR-beta perivascular populations can clarify how inflammation and infection alter the microvasculature and may identify targets for understanding vascular dysfunction.

2012

Human perivascular stem cells (PSCs) are a novel stem cell class for skeletal tissue regeneration similar to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). PSCs can be isolated by FACS (fluorescence activated cell sorting) from adipose tissue procured during standard liposuction procedures, then combined with an osteoinductive scaffold to achieve bone formation in vivo.

Cited by 7 •

2016

Human cardiac tissue harbours multipotent perivascular precursor cell populations that may be suitable for myocardial regeneration. The technique described here allows for the simultaneous isolation and purification of two multipotent stromal cell populations associated with native blood vessels, i.e. CD146+CD34- pericytes and CD34+CD146- adventitial cells, from the human myocardium.

Beta

2024

Beta is a crucial metric in finance used to assess an investment's risk and expected return relative to the overall market. It is calculated as the slope of the line in a scatterplot that compares the returns of an individual stock to the returns of the market benchmark, typically represented by a broad market index. Beta quantifies how much a stock's price moves in response to market movements, providing insight into its volatility and systematic risk. A beta of one indicates that the stock's...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Perivascular Spaces in the Human Brain During a Small Vessel Stroke

2025

Perivascular spaces (PVS) are fluid-filled spaces around the brain blood vessels involved in fluid drainage.To examine alterations in PVS during a small vessel stroke, perform magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the basal ganglia region in the patient’s brain.The imaging protocol includes the T2-weighted fast spin echo and fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) sequences.T2-weighted imaging enhances the contrast between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-filled PVS and surrounding tissue.FLAIR...
