And high blood sugar leads to rapid increase in endothelial cell permeability.
- And high blood sugar leads to rapid increase in endothelial cell permeability.
- You know, exercise also acutely impairs endothelial cell function and so does sleep.
- Glucose causes small vessels to be dysfunctional, causes endothelial cell dysfunction.
- And on the inside there's a lining of cells, very special cells called endothelial cells, endo, because they're on the inside.
- It's it increases VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor, which basically makes your blood vessels grow more.
- It creates, keeps your endothelial wall supple.
- Smoking and vaping reduces penis size and also will have damaging effects on the bloodlining endothelial tissue.

Morphology
endothelial = endothelium (transparent) = endothelium + al
The adjective is formed regularly from the noun 'endothelium' with the standard suffix '-al', meaning 'relating to'.
Etymology
Endothelial comes from endo- meaning 'inside' and -thelium from a Greek word for a small nipple that later came to mean a thin 'lining', so a helpful image is the thin inner skin inside a tube. So, endothelial means the 'inside lining' or inner skin of blood vessels, which is why it names the thin layer of cells that lines them.
