Experientia Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The extraembryonic vascular membranes of 3-day-18-day chick embryos were examined for the presence of mast cells. As early as 3.5 ddays mast cells were found on the area vasculosa. It is suggested that these cells have a role in angiogenesis of the chick extraembryonic vascular system.
