The Vasculome: From Many, One introduces the fundamental bases of the unity in diversity? of the Vasculome, from the coming together of various cell lineages during development, to its deceptively simple solution for architectural design: the efficient interplay of a few types of building blocks supporting key similar functions throughout the body and their highly specialized functional local variations. Specific examples are included to illustrate how the Vasculome is integral to the function and malfunction of different organs, such as the brain or the kidney. Each section is preceded by an introductory summary that will give a high level unified view of the key concepts illustrated in the various chapters in that section. Brings together leading experts who present the latest biomedical thinking about the vasculature from the integrative perspective of the Vasculome Challenges traditional real and perceived boundaries within vascular research areas and stimulates new fundamental thinking and medical explorations Creates the bases for translating the integrative Vasculome concept into improved fundamental and clinical assessment and management of local and systemic contributions of the vasculature in health and disease INDICE: PART I.
