Differential Gene Expression of Primary Cultured Lymphatic and Blood Vascular Endothelial Cells
1 Dec 2007
Abstract excerpt
Blood vascular endothelial cells (BECs) and the developmentally related lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs) create complementary, yet distinct vascular networks. Each endothelial cell type interacts with flowing fluid and circulating cells, yet each vascular system has evolved specialized gene expression programs and thus both cell types display different phenotypes. BECs and LECs express distinct genes that are...
