Vascular permeability characterizes the capacity of a blood vessel wall to pass through small molecules (ions, water, nutrients) or even whole cells ([[lymphocyte]]s on their way to the site of [[inflammation]]). Blood vessel walls are lined by a single layer of [[endothelial]] cells. The gaps between endothelial cells ([[cell junction]]s) are strictly regulated depending on the type and physiological state of the tissue. |
