ECs of a vessel dynamically communicate with surrounding tissues. Tissues provide positive and negative patterning cues, such as VEGF or Semaphorins (respectively), which influence EC migration and thereby shape the vasculature. ECs, in turn, provide signals to tissues regulating their growth and homeostasis, which remain largely unknown.
