Wed. Dec 3, 2025 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM JST
Wed. Dec 3, 2025 12:00 AM - 2:00 AM UTC
Room 16(Pacifico Yokohama Conference Center 5F, 502)
Organizer: Seiji Yamamoto (University of Toyama), Atsushi Enomoto (Nagoya University)
Vascular endothelial cells constitute thin inside wall of blood vessels, while perivascular cells such as pericytes and fibroblasts are located the perivascular space. Vessels are thought to express organ specificity and physical strength through the elaborate regulation of ECM production and signaling molecules by perivascular cells; however, the mode of development and precise molecular signals of perivascular cells are still under debate. This symposium aims to introduce the state-of-the-art research on perivascular cells, to widely share the knowledges and deeply discuss with senior and young researchers.
