Vascular biology: Transcriptional control of endothelial energy.
Christer Betsholtz | Nature (2016) doi:10.1038/nature16866
The formation of blood vessels requires rapid proliferation of endothelial cells. The transcription factors FOXO1 and MYC have been found to regulate the metabolism and proliferation of vascular endothelial cells.
