Molecular regulation of vessel maturation

Article Abstract:

Unprecedented insight is provided by the research into the molecular determinants of new vessel formation. The maturation of nascent vasculature requires recruitment of mural cells, generation of an extracellular matrix and specialization of the vessel wall for structural support and regulation of vessel function.
