Single Cell Analysis of the Normal Mouse Aorta Reveals Functionally Distinct Endothelial Cell Subpopulations

The cells that form the arterial wall contribute to multiple vascular diseases. The extent of cellular heterogeneity within these populations has not been fully characterized. Recent advances in single–cell RNA-sequencing make it possible to identify and characterize cellular subpopulations.
