According to recent research from the United States, "To identify the roles of various circulating cells (eg, endothelial and/or stem and progenitor cells) in angiogenesis, we parabiosed a wild-type syngeneic mouse with a transgenic syngeneic green fluorescent protein mouse. Following the establishment of a common circulation between these parabionts, we investigated acute (7 to 10 days), subacute (2 to 3 weeks), and chronic (4 to 6 weeks) phases of angiogenesis in wildtype mice using wound healing, implanted gel foam fragments, and subcutaneous tumor assays, respectively." "We found that under in vitro conditions, circulating murine monocytes expressed F4/80, CD31, and...
