Endothelial Stem Cell - Animal Models of Vasculogenesis

Animal Models of Vasculogenesis

There are a number of models used to study vasculogenesis. Avian embryos, Xenopus laevis embryos, are both fair models. However, zebrafish and mouse embryos have widespread use for easily observed development of vascular systems, and the recognition of key parts of molecular regulation when ECs differentiate.
