Abstract:Controlling the multiscale organization of vasculature within diverse geometries is essential for shaping tissue-specific and organ-specific architectures. Nevertheless, how geometrical characteristics of surrounding tissues influence vessel morphology and blood flow remains unclear. Where the regulation of vascular organization by mechanical signals associated with fluid flow is well known, this study postulates that the organization of developing vasculature can also be regulated by mechanical signals connec… Show more
