VEGF Drives the Car toward Better Gas Exchange

Abstract

How lung epithelium and endothelium co-develop to maintain structural integrity of alveoli remains unclear. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Ellis et al. define how epithelial Vegfa directs development of a distinct endothelial cell population that ultimately plays a critical role in ensuring appropriate alveolar septation during alveologenesis.
