Overview

Endothelial dysfunction screening may aid vascular risk assessment; leaves open efficacy of targeted therapies without randomized evidence.

Key Points

  • Synthesize the physiological functions of endothelial cells, the mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction, and therapeutic strategies for vascular repair and disease management.
  • Conducted a narrative review of recent literature on endothelial cell biology, selective permeability, and immunological response regulation.
  • Evaluated molecular and physiological processes connecting endothelial cell damage to systemic cardiovascular and metabolic disorders alongside repair strategies.
  • Endothelial cell dysfunction serves as a primary driver of major vascular disorders, specifically atherosclerosis, hypertension, and diabetic microvascular damage.
  • Early detection of barrier breakdown coupled with targeted regenerative therapies facilitates endothelial repair and mitigates progressive vascular damage.
