The presence of endothelial cell (EC)-derived surface molecules in the circulation is among hallmarks of endothelial activation and damage in vivo. Previous investigations suggest that upregulation of T-cadherin (T-cad) on the surface of ECs may be a characteristic marker of EC activation and stress. We investigated whether T-cad might also be shed from ECs and in amounts reflecting the extent of activation or damage.
