Mechanical forces switch blood vessel subtypes to arrest adolescent bone growth
[post]
2021
unpublished
Bone growth requires a specialised, highly angiogenic blood vessel subtype, so-called type H vessels1,2, which pave the way for osteoblasts surrounding these vessels3. At the end of adolescence, type H endothelial cells differentiate into quiescent type L endothelium lacking the capacity to promote bone growth. Until now, the signals that switch off type H vessel identity and thus arrest adolescent bone growth have remained ill defined. Here we show that mechanical forces, associated with
