Effects of hypertension on LEPCs functions. A Quantification of migration, adhesion and tube formation ability of LEPCs. LEPCs functions decreased in hypertension (P < 0.01 vs. normotension); B representative photographs of LEPCs functions. a, b Representative photographs of LEPCs migration; c, d representative photographs of LEPCs adhesion; e, f representative photographs of LEPCs tube formation (magnification 100, scale bar 100 μm). Number of per hp for migration and adhesion, number of per mm2 for tube. LEPCs late endothelial cells
