SFB / Transregio 23
"Vascular Differentiation and Remodeling"

Mannheim - Heidelberg - Frankfurt

Project area A includes all projects that study Mediators and Effectors that act on the cells of the vessel wall. These are: 

A2: Chavakis/Dimmeler
Role of integrin activity regulation for endothelial cell adhesion, migration and angiogenesis

A3: Augustin 
Role of the Angiopoietin/Tie system in controlling vascular morphogenesis and homeostasis

A4: Schmidt
Regulation of vascular Notch signaling by EGFL7

A6: Fleming
Molecular analysis of cytochrome P450 epoxygenases as regulators of angiogenic endothelial cell signaling and vascular differentiation

A7: Fischer
The role of Notch ligands during blood vessel development

A8: Eble
Physiological roles of collagen-binding integrins on endothelial cells in angiogenic sprouting and vessel integrity

A9: Schneider
Mechanism controlling the transition from quiescent to activated endothelium by exocytosis of Weibel-Palade bodies triggered by tumor cells
