In vitro angiogenesis is modulated by the mechanical properties of fibrin gels and is related to αvβ3 integrin localization

SummaryThis study deals with the role of the mechanical properties of matrices in in vitro angiogenesis. The ability of rigid fibrinogen matrices with fibrin gels to promote capillarylike structures was compared. The role of the mechanical properties of the fibrin gels was assessed by varying concen...
