title: New specs for arteriovenous identity.
abstract: In this issue of Blood, Aranguren et al. provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms that determine the identity of human endothelial cells: i.e., will they line arteries or veins? The findings have implications in our understanding of vascular disease and in the design of vascular-specific therapies and tissue engineering.
