Organogenesis of the Arterial Wall

  • Chapter

Abstract

It is evident that the growth of the embryo beyond its earliest stages requires the establishment of a circulatory system, to supply nutrients to and remove waste from developing tissues. The subsequent differentiation and development of the organism eventually produces a specialized cardiovascular system with distinct variations in form in different parts. In between embryonic and adult life vascular systems will have developed, involuted, been obliterated, modified their form or changed their microarchitecture, all in response to stimuli that are, with few exceptions, not well understood.
