背景信息：
EGFL7 (EGF-like domain-containing protein 7) regulates vascular tubulogenesis in vivo. During sprouting angiogenesis, groups of endothelial cells (ECs) migrate together in units called sprouts. EGFL7 regulates the proper spatial organization of ECs within each sprout and influences their collective movement. It inhibits platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-induced smooth muscle cell migration and promotes endothelial cells adhesion to the substrate in vitro.
