The level of endothelial glycocalyx (EG) shedding is associated with morbidity and mortality, and vascular endothelial barrier dysfunction is one of the pivotal clinical problems faced by critically ill patients, so research on the protective effects of EG is of great clinical significance for the treatment of critically ill diseases. Studies have illustrated that clinical anesthesia has different degrees of effects on vascular EG. Therefore, we reviewed the effects of distinct anesthesia methods and diverse anesthetic drugs on EG, aiming to provide a brief summary of what we know now, and to discuss possible future directions for investigations in this area. So as to provide a theoretical basis for future research on potential EG-positive drugs and targets, to minimize perioperative complications and improve the prognosis of surgical patients.

Vascular injury in glomerulopathies: the role of the endothelium.

In glomerulopathies, endothelial dysfunction and the presence of histological vascular lesions such as thrombotic microangiopathy, arteriolar hyalinosis, and arteriosclerosis are related to a severe clinical course and worse renal prognosis. The endothelial cell, which naturally has anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic regulatory mechanisms, is particularly susceptible to damage caused by various etiologies and can become dysfunctional due to direct/indirect injury or a deficiency of protective factors. In addition, endothelial regulation and protection involve participation of the complement system, factors related to angiogenesis, the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), endothelin, the glycocalyx, the coagulation cascade, interaction between these pathways, interactions between glomerular structures (the endothelium, mesangium, podocyte, and basement membrane) and interstitial structures (tubules, arterioles and small vessels).

: The association between diabetic nephropathy and arterial elasticity and endothelial function is well established. In this study, we compared the effect of the combination of dulaglutide and dapagliflozin versus DPP-4 inhibitors on the endothelial glycocalyx, arterial stiffness, myocardial function, and albuminuria. : Overall, 60 patients were randomized to combined dulaglutide and dapagliflozin treatment (n = 30) or DPP-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i, n = 30) (ClinicalTrials.

Maintaining the physiological function of the vascular endothelium and endothelial glycocalyx is crucial for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, which is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Damage to these structures can lead to atherosclerosis, hypertension, and other cardiovascular problems, especially in individuals with risk factors such as diabetes and obesity. Endothelial dysfunction is associated with ischemic disease and has a negative impact on overall cardiovascular health.

Circulating lactate is a critical biomarker for sepsis-induced acute lung injury (S-ALI) and is strongly associated with poor prognosis. However, whether elevated lactate directly promotes S-ALI and the specific mechanism involved remain unclear. Here, this work shows that lactate causes pulmonary endothelial glycocalyx degradation and worsens ALI during sepsis.

Article Synopsis
- This study investigated eye and small blood vessel issues in patients who experienced symptoms after recovering from COVID-19, analyzing 44 patients mostly around 47 years old.
- Using advanced imaging techniques, researchers found significant retinal abnormalities, including hyperreflective dots and areas of capillary non-perfusion, indicating compromised blood flow.
- The results suggest that these retinal changes are linked to reduced capillary density, highlighting the importance of microvascular damage instead of just lasting problems with a protective layer around blood vessels.
