One of the obstacles to growing new organs — hearts, lungs and kidneys — is the difficulty researchers face in building blood vessels that keep the tissues alive. U-M researchers are addressing this roadblock. They have revealed how one of the current approaches is making leaky tubes and demonstrated how adult stem cells could help solve this problem.
