Transient production of CD157-positive vascular endothelial stem-like cells during human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial maturation
cells exhibited stem-like characteristics expressing the apelin receptor. This protocol provides a fast methodology to generate endothelial stem-like cells and in vitro models to study EC development.
