The 12 pages that link to Pericyte, each with the reason it gives.

• Blood–brain barrierRelated: Pericytes help regulate barrier development, stability, and vessel function.

• CapillaryRelated: Pericytes support capillaries and help regulate vessel stability and local blood flow.

• AngiogenesisRelated: Pericytes stabilize newly formed vessels and help regulate their permeability.

• Tumor microenvironmentBroader topic: Pericytes influence tumor-vessel stability and the movement of cells and molecules across vessels.

• Endothelial cellRelated: Pericytes contact endothelial cells and help stabilize microvessels.

• Vascular smooth muscleCompared with: Pericytes occupy smaller-vessel niches and are distinct from the smooth-muscle layer of larger vessels.

• Hepatic stellate cellCompared with: Stellate cells share perivascular features with pericytes but reside specifically beside liver sinusoids.

• VenuleRelated: Pericytes help support and regulate the smallest venular segments.

• Blood–spinal cord barrierBroader topic: Pericytes help maintain barrier properties and regulate local vessel function.

• Muscle cellCompared with: Its vessel-regulating contractions contrast with the force-producing role of muscle cells.

• Pancreatic stellate cellsNarrower topic: Pancreatic stellate cells share features with perivascular support cells.

• Primary familial brain calcificationBroader topic: Disrupted pericyte support is implicated in calcification associated with PDGFB and PDGFRB variants.
