Abstract
The established knowledge concerned with the vascular wall lack the functional detailed evidence of the Endothelial layer function. Latest studies confirmed the importance of vascular endothelial layer mainly in capillaries circulation that lack the presence of middle smooth muscles layer. In this short review we confirm the importance of the vascular endothelial layer in the homeostatic function including oxygen and carbon-dioxide transfer as well as maintaining hydro-static pressure, maintaining the acid base balance, absorption of nutrients and extraction of wastes.
