A letter to the editor
In their hypothesis paper, Wirth, Scheibenbogen, and Paul describe how endothelial dysfunction could produce a wide range of neurological symptoms in people with ME/CFS [1]. As they and others work to refine their understanding of ME/CFS and the related Long COVID syndrome, I would encourage consideration of the possibility that endothelial dysfunction and vascular damage could also explain other symptoms, including widespread pain and inflammation and post-exertional malaise.
For the past four years, my wife and I have been caregivers for our teenage daughter, who has ME/CFS, hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, craniocervical instability, Chiari malformation and several other comorbid conditions. Through observation and trial and error, I have developed a number of hypotheses on these matters that I offer here in the hope they might prompt formal research into how to effectively treat these conditions.
Discussion of endothelial dysfunction and vascular damage in ME/CFS and Long COVID generally focuses on how leakages from dysfunctional blood vessels lead to reduced blood flow, which has many consequences, including reduced oxygenation of muscles and reduced cerebral brain flow. As researchers study this phenomenon, I would encourage consideration of the additional possibility that the leaking fluid causes independent damage. Lipedema researchers have found that leakages from microangiopathic blood vessels cause an excess of interstitial fluid that stimulates the formation of subcutaneous adipose tissue [3], which generates hypoxic conditions and becomes fibrotic, contributing to pain and inflammation [4].
I hypothesize that a similar process happens when fluid leaks from faulty blood vessels in ME/CFS, possibly exacerbated by endothelial dysfunction in lymphatic vessels that inhibit the fluid’s removal, causing widespread pain and inflammation. This mechanism appears most pronounced among people with hypermobility or other connective tissue disorders, a common trait among people with both ME/CFS and lipedema.
My daughter experiences pain from fibrotic adipose tissue as well as what appears to be nerve compression from accumulated interstitial / lymphatic fluid. Manual lymphatic drainage, the squeezing of affected tissue, and the manual break-up of fibrotic adipose tissue have helped to ameliorate these symptoms.
In my daughter, I have also observed impaired drainage of fluid from the glymphatic system, both at the cribriform plate and down her spine. Could this be related to damaged lymphatic vessels or blockages from fibrotic adipose tissue?
Like many people with moderate or severe ME/CFS, my daughter struggles to recover from even small amounts of physical exertion. In addition to mitigating her pain, manual lymphatic drainage and the squeezing of affected tissue greatly accelerates this recovery process. We have observed a direct dose–response relationship: the more exercise, the more fluid is present in her tissues, and the more manual draining / squeezing is necessary for her to recover.
Based on this experience, I hypothesize that excess interstitial fluid resulting from dysfunctional blood and lymphatic vessels contributes to the experience of post-exertional malaise, with fluid literally drowning affected tissue, leading to hypoxic conditions and inflammation. Possible explanations for the increased interstitial fluid are increases in blood pressure during physical exertion, hypermobile joints going out of place, prompting localized increases in interstitial fluid, and increases in cortisol that generate an increase in fluid and blood volume. Increases in fluid leakage due to elevated cortisol levels may also explain why some people with ME/CFS feel worse when stressed or anxious. The role of cortisol (or another mediator with fluid retaining properties) may explain why cognitive exertion can also generate post-exertional malaise. When present, elevated estrogen levels may exacerbate leakage by increasing fluid volume.

Arteries and veins are lined by nonproliferating endothelial cells that play a critical role in regulating blood flow. Endothelial cells also regulate tissue perfusion, metabolite exchange, and thrombosis. It is thought that endothelial cells rely on ATP generated via glycolysis, rather than mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, to fuel each of these energy-demanding processes. However, endothelial metabolism has mainly been studied in the context of proliferative cells, and little is known about energy production in endothelial cells within the fully formed vascular wall. Using intact arteries isolated from rats and mice, we show that inhibiting mitochondrial respiration disrupts endothelial control of vascular tone. Basal, mechanically activated, and agonist-evoked calcium activity in intact artery endothelial cells are each prevented by inhibiting mitochondrial ATP synthesis. Agonist-evoked calcium activity was also inhibited by blocking the transport of pyruvate, the master fuel for mitochondrial energy production, through the mitochondrial pyruvate carrier. The role for mitochondria in endothelial cell energy production is independent of species, sex, or vascular bed. These data show that a mitochondrial ATP supply is necessary for calcium-dependent, nitric oxide-mediated endothelial control of vascular tone, and identifies the critical role of endothelial mitochondrial energy production in fueling perfused blood vessel function.
Von Willebrand Factor A Vital Marker in COVID-19
Although there is increasing evidence of endothelial dysfunction and hypercoagulability in COVID-19. The underlying molecular mechanisms of thrombosis development in COVID-19 remain unknown. Decreased ADAMTS-13 levels have been associated with severe and potentially fatal thrombosis.
Hemostatic Potential in Hypertension as a Basis Personificated Antitrimbothic Prevention and Therapy Technology
Authored by VV Udut*
The paper contains data on hemostatic potential in patients with stage 1 and stage 2 hypertension. Endothelium is a metabolic system which primarily responds to changes in homeostasis and serves as a «stabilizer» of the blood aggregate state. Hypertensive heart disease is accompanied by endothelial dysfunction manifested by vasoconstriction, increased secretion and adhesion of the hemostasis cellular system, activation of hemostasis plasma factors and, as a result, increased thrombin generation, which is the main enzyme determining the intensity of hemocoagulation. Development of endothelial dysfunction (release of the content of endothelial storage pools, contraction, and structural damage to endothelial cells with the formation of deendothelization areas and exposure of collagen fibers, etc.) contributes to the transition of hemostatic potential from hypoand normal coagulation to hypercoagulation and causes a higher risk of thrombotic complications. Therefore, are evaluation and monitoring of the hemostatic potential in therapy aimed at preventing thrombotic hemorrhagic complications great importance.
