cardiovascular system
• lung endothelia contain very few caveolae with more shallow endothelium membrane invagination
• adipose endothelium contains fewer caveolae than in wild-type mice
• however, calveolae in the heart and muscle are normal
• gaps in the lung capillary
• lung endothelia contain very few caveolae with more shallow endothelium membrane invagination
