The mechanisms that regulate the size-related morphologies of various blood vessels from the aorta to capillary vessels are still poorly understood. In this study, we evaluate the involvement of regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1), a regulatory protein in the calcineurin/NFAT signal transduction pathway, in vascular morphology to gain further insight into these mechanisms.
