Pericytes from Infantile Hemangioma Display Pro-angiogenic Properties and Dysregulated Angiopoietin-1

OBJECTIVE: Infantile hemangioma (IH) is a rapidly growing vascular tumor affecting newborns. It is composed of immature endothelial cells and pericytes that proliferate into a disorganized mass of blood vessels.
