Modulated expression of actin-cytoskeletal regulatory proteins and endothelial cell differentiation markers during capillary morphogenesis in three-dimensional collagen matrix /

The formation of capillaries is critical during many physiologic and pathologic processes. The model of capillary morphogenesis in vitro uses human umbilical vein endothelial cells suspended within three-dimensional type I collagen gels. The cells undergo dramatic morphogenic changes to develop capi...
