Abstract
Cloned capillary endothelial cells, cultured in tumour-conditioned medium, form capillary tubes. By light and electron microscopy these tubes resemble capillaries in vivo. This first demonstration of angiogenesis in vitro: (1) shows that all the information necessary to develop an entire capillary network in vitro is expressed by one cell type; (2) suggests a mechanism for lumen formation; and (3) offers a possibility of distinguishing between direct and indirect angiogenesis factors.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
