Angiogenic Role of LYVE-1–Positive Macrophages in Adipose Tissue
Chung-Hyun Cho, et al. – Here we report the discovery of a characteristic dense vascular network (DVN) in the tip portion of epididymal adipose tissue in adult mice. The DVN is formed by angiogenesis rather than by vasculogenesis, and has functional blood circulation. This DVN and its subsequent branching may provide a new functional route for adipogenesis [more...]
