Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Binding of Ulex europaeus lectin to microvessels was used to isolate endothelial cells from cycling human endometrium. Cultured human endometrial endothelial cells (HEECs) exhibited endothelial cell-specific characteristics such as tube formation on a basement membrane matrix and sequestration of acetylated low-density lipoprotein. Markers for potentially contaminating epithelial, stromal, smooth muscle, and bone marrow-derived cells were not detected in the HEEC cultures. Basal and proinflammatory-stimulated immunostaining profiles for endothelial cell-specific adhesion markers, as exemplified by Von Willebrand's factor and E-selectin, were similar for cultured HEECs and human umbilical venous cord endothelial cells (HUVECs). However, HUVECs expressed several extracellular matrix proteins that were absent from cultured HEECs. In the latter, the protein kinase C agonist phorbol myristate acetate transiently enhanced tissue factor (TF) mRNA levels and elicited a more prolonged elevation in TF protein levels, but did not affect plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) mRNA and protein levels. Inappropriate expression of TF, which initiates hemostasis by generating thrombin, and of PAI-1, which regulates hemostasis by acting as the primary inhibitor of fibrinolysis, can each lead to thrombosis. The differential regulation of TF and PAI-1 expression revealed in the current study emphasizes the importance of using HEECs to evaluate mechanisms regulating the hemostatic/thrombotic balance in human endometrium.
