Abstract
Bartonella henselae is a gram-negative pathogen that causes angiogenesis. Here, I establish in vitro models to study Bartonella -induced blood vessel formation. I found that B. henselae induces long-term endothelial survival and tubular differentiation within type I collagen matrix.Keywords
