Engineering of In Vitro 3D Capillary Beds by Self-Directed Angiogenic Sprouting
In recent years, microfluidic systems have been used to study fundamental aspects of angiogenesis through the patterning of single-layered, linear or geometric vascular channels. In vivo, however, capillaries exist in complex, three-dimensional (3D) networks, and angiogenic sprouting occurs with a d...
