endoteeliväylien
Endoteeliväylien refers to the channels or pathways formed by endothelial cells, which line the interior surface of blood vessels and lymphatic vessels. These structures are fundamental to the cardiovascular and lymphatic systems. In blood vessels, endothelial cells form a continuous barrier that regulates the passage of substances between the blood and surrounding tissues. This regulation is crucial for maintaining blood pressure, controlling inflammation, and preventing blood clots. The endothelium also plays a role in vasodilation and vasoconstriction, influencing blood flow.
In lymphatic vessels, endothelial cells create a similar barrier that facilitates the collection and transport of
Dysfunction of endothelial pathways can contribute to various diseases. For instance, damage to the blood vessel
