In conclusion, this study shows that electroporation, using electrical parameters that<br />

do not affect cell viability, induced reversible effects on actin, tubulin, but not on<br />

vimentin intracellular arrangement and disrupted VE-cadherin endothelial junctions.<br />

These changes resulted in an increase in permeability of endothelial monolayer that<br />

could potentially contribute toward transient impairment of the normal function of<br />

the microvasculature, which was observed in vivo after application of electric pulses<br />

to tumours and normal tissues.<br />
