Abstract excerpt

Endothelial cells are known to undergo transitions in cell shape during long-term culture. Thus, the assumption that the separate phenotypes of microvascular endothelial cells (MVEC) recently isolated from bovine corpus luteum represent constitutively different cell strains cannot automatically b...
