Sex-specific remodeling of the human adipose tissue vascular niche in obesity

This study identifies sex-specific changes in the vascular niche of human adipose tissue in obesity, showing distinct structural and transcriptional differences between males and females.

CreER activation transiently impairs angiogenesis by slowing endothelial proliferation

This study shows that CreER activation in mice impairs angiogenesis by slowing endothelial proliferation, with effects recovering after tamoxifen discontinuation.

NRP1-expressing myeloid cells promote arteriogenesis in the ischemic limb

The paper identifies NRP1-expressing myeloid cells as promoters of arteriogenesis in ischemic limbs and suggests their therapeutic potential.

Angiogenic Signaling Counteracts Shear Stress-driven Arterial Patterning.

This study shows VEGF inhibits arterial specification in capillaries by suppressing Sox17, preventing premature arterialization driven by shear stress.
