Abstract The autonomic sympathetic nervous system innervates peripheral resistance arteries, thereby controlling arterial diameter and modulating blood supply to organs and arterial tone. Despite its fundamental role in blood flow regulation and cardiovascular adaptation to challenging situations, how sympathetic arterial innervation develops remains poorly understood.
Rationale: Arterial endothelial cells are morphologically, functionally, and molecularly distinct from those found in veins and lymphatic vessels. How arterial fate is acquired during development and maintained in adult vessels is incompletely understood. Methods and Results: We developed a functional assay, allowing us to monitor and manipulate arterial fate in vivo, using arteries isolated from quails that are grafted into the coelom of chick embryos.
