The Phenotypic And Functional Properties Of Mouse Yolk-Sac-Derived Embryonic Macrophages.

In conclusion, we have established a protocol to isolate and propagate EMs in vitro, have further defined specialized properties of yolk-sac-derived macrophages, and have identified EM-EC and EM-NSPC interactions as key inducers of EC tube formation and microglial cell maturation, respectively.
