Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies have shown that ephrin-B2 and its cognate EphB4 receptor are necessary for normal embryonic angiogenesis. Moreover, there is overwhelming evidence that ephrin-B2 is involved in tumor vascularization, yet its role in adult angiogenesis has been difficult to track genetically. Here, we report the generation of transgenic mice that over-express EfnB2 specifically in endothelial cells (ECs). We show...
