Role of Hedgehog Signaling on Endothelial Vascular Patterning

During embryonic vasculogenesis, endothelial cells form in the mesoderm , assemble into cord-like structures and then undergo tube formation. Previous studies have shown that signaling by members of the hedgehog family of secreted growth factors is essential for normal development of embryonic blo...
