Morphology of microvascular endothelial cells (mEC) C2-6 in the absence and presence of homocysteine. Scanning electron micrograph of mEC cultured in the absence (a,b) and in the presence of L-homocysteine for 24 hours (c,d). Note the impaired cell-to-cell contact formation and high density of stress-associated microvilli in Hcy-treated mEC.
