Abstract

The vascular system is a complex network of vessels connecting tissues and organs in the body. Endothelial cells form the inner lining of all blood vessels. These cells have common properties, for example, a nonthrombogenic luminal surface, abluminal basement membrane and von-Willebrand-Factor production. On the other hand, endothelial cells of capillaries are functionally and morphologically heterogeneous which is important for tissue and organ function. On the basis of morphology they have been subdivided into three groups: continuous, fenestrated and discontinuous capillaries (1). It should be noted that a single organ (e.g. brain, kidney) can contain both fenestrated (choroid plexus, glomeruli) and continuous capillaries.
