Positive Effects

Intracellular Ca2+ regulation plays a pivotal role in endothelial biology as well as during endothelial restoration processes. Interest in honey utilization in wound approaches is rising in recent years. In order to evaluate the positive effects of buckwheat honey on endothelial responses, we utilized an immortalized endothelial cell line to evaluate cellular responses upon honey exposure, with particular interest in Ca2+ signaling involvement. The results highlight the positive effects of buckwheat honey on endothelial cells’ responses and the central role played by Ca2+ signaling as an encouraging target for more efficacious clinical treatments.

Microvascular Endothelial

In this study, we investigated the production of endothelin 1 (ET-1) by a human microvascular endothelial cell line, HMEC-1, co-cultured with Plasmodium falciparum-parasitized red blood cells (pRBCs). The results indicate that hypoxia increased the basal level of ET-1 production by HMEC-1 cells after 24 or 48h of treatment. However, the co-incubation of HMEC-1 cells with pRBCs, but not with uninfected RBCs, induced a dose-dependent decrease of both constitutive and hypoxia-induced ET-1 production. The inhibition was not due to a decrease in cell viability, as lactate dehydrogenase release remained constant. These results indicate that pRBCs are able to interfere with both the constitutive and stimulated ET-1 release from the microvascular endothelium, thus inducing local modifications of the vascular tone and of the inflammatory response. This could be of relevance in the pathogenesis of the most severe forms of P. falciparum infections, such as cerebral malaria or malaria during pregnancy.
