Blood vessels grow in difficult metabolic conditions, and recent research has identified two proteins involved in regulating this mechanism.

Researchers report that two proteins, YAP and TAZ, play a crucial role in blood vessel growth, even under challenging metabolic conditions.

Blood vessels run throughout the human body and ensure that our organs get all the nutrients and oxygen they need.
