Dual function of perivascular fibroblasts in vascular stabilization in zebrafish
2020-04-27
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Blood vessels are vital to sustain life in all vertebrates. While it is known that mural cells (pericytes and smooth muscle cells) regulate vascular integrity, the contribution of other cell types to vascular stabilization has been largely unexplored. Using zebrafish, we identified sclerotome-derived perivascular fibroblasts as a novel population of blood vessel associated cells. In contrast to...
