Tunneling nanotubes evoke pericyte/endothelial communication during normal and tumoral angiogenesis
Abstract Background Nanotubular structures, denoted tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) have been described in recent times as involved in cell-to-cell communication between distant cells. Nevertheless, TNT-like, long filopodial processes had already been described in the last century as connecting facing, g...
