Figure 1. Evolution of endothelial regulatory roles in vascular repair and homologies with roles in cancer.

Figure 1

(A) The endothelium, the cellular lining of the vasculature, is a remarkably plastic and responsive organ with far-reaching regulatory roles. (B) State-dependent regulatory paradigms identified in vascular disease and repair may be useful as guides for the examination of endothelial roles in cancer.
