Project area C includes all projects that study Cellular and Systemic Interactions between the cells of the vessel wall. These are:
C1: Reiss/Plate
Influence of Angiopoietin-2 on vascular integrity and accessory
cell recruitment
C5: Korff
The role of smooth muscle cells during stretch-induced
vascular remodeling
C6: Hecker
Endothelial cell-platelet-leukocyte interaction in vascular
remodeling:
Role of CD40/CD154-mediated co-stimulation
C7: Wettschureck/Offermanns
Mechanisms of platelet activation and their relevance for platelet / vessel wall interaction
