Human umbilical artery endothelial cells
(Redirected from Human Umbilical Artery Endothelial Cells)
Human umbilical artery endothelial cells (HUAECs) are cells derived from the endothelium of arteries from the umbilical cord. They are used as a laboratory model system for the study of the function and pathology of endothelial cells (e.g., atherosclerosis). HUAECs have “cobblestone” morphology.[1]
