Tissue vascularization entails the formation of a blood vessel plexus, which remodels into arteries and veins. Here we show, by using time-lapse imaging of zebrafish fin regeneration and genetic ...

Model more closely replicates natural environment of the pancreas, which will be essential for studying diabetes and ...

At the start of this process, some endothelial cells along the outside of an existing blood vessel turn into tip cells. These tip cells have long finger-like protrusions on their surface ...

Researchers have developed a vascularized organoid model of hormone secreting cells in the pancreas. The advance promises to improve diabetes research and cell-based therapies.

In normal growth, an endothelial cell sprouts from an existing vessel as a tip, while others that follow the tip cell become the stalk cells that ultimately form vessel walls. The cell-to-cell ...
