#EndothelialBarrier

#LaminarShear pushes VE-PTP (How?) to downstream pole of #EndothelialCell, followed by endocytosis->p-Tie2

Potentially explain how #DisturbedFlow#VascularPermeability & #Atherosclerosis

Inhibition of VE-PTP by AKB-9785 fortifies #EndothelialBarrier & reduces Atheromas at atheroprone regions (aortic arch inner curvature, arch+intercostal bifurcations)

Nice comparison of anti-leakage strategies
VE-PTP inhibition
Angpt1 activation of Tie2
Angpt2 inhibition
