doi: 10.1016/j.isci.2025.113262
Figure Lengend Snippet: In vitro endothelial glycocalyx degradation and endothelial barrier disruption followed by impedance measurement (A) SDC-1 staining on ciGEnC cells after incubation with MMP-9 enzyme and increased concentration of albumin (scale bars 20 μm). (B) SDC-1 fluorescence quantification after treatment compared to control (no treatment) (averaged values of 3 sections per condition, n = 3 assays). (C) HS staining on ciGEnC cells after incubation with HSPE enzyme and increased concentration of albumin (scale bars 20 μm). (D) HS fluorescence quantification after treatment compared to control (no treatment) (averaged values of 3 sections per condition, n = 3 assays). (E) Endothelial barrier resistance followed by impedance measurement (ECIS, APBiophysic) on ciGEnC after treatment with MMP-9 and albumin (averaged of 2 values per conditions, n = 3 assays). (F) Endothelial barrier resistance followed by impedance measurement (ECIS, APBiophysic) on ciGEnC after treatment with HSPE and albumin (averaged of 2 values per conditions, n = 3 assays). Data are represented as mean ± SD. Significant differences are indicated by asterisks (∗∗∗ p < 0.001; ∗∗ p < 0.01; and ∗ p < 0.05). HS, heparan sulfate; SDC-1, syndecan-1; MMP-9, matrix metalloproteinase 9; HPSE, human heparanase.
