The subcategories were defined as the phenotype at the initial point of time-lapse videos (Tstart). The videos were captured at 10-min intervals for 24–48 h.

b

Controls: Tie2-Cre;fakflox/+ or fakflox/+; mutants: Tie2-Cre;fakflox/flox.

c

Elongation, widening, and network formation from sprouts.

d

Reduction in length or size and degeneration, including cell death.

e

Increased network complexity and caliber.
