Abstract
Human blood vessel organoids (hBVOs) have emerged as a system to model human vascular development and disease. Here, we use single-cell multi-omics together with genetic and signaling pathway perturbations to reconstruct hBVO development. Mesodermal progenitors bifurcate into endothelial and mural fates in vitro, and xenografted BVOs acquire definitive arteriovenous endothelial cell specification. We infer a gene regulatory network and use single-cell genetic perturbations to identify transcription factors (TFs) and receptors involved in cell fate specification, including a role for MECOM in endothelial and mural specification. We assess the potential of BVOs to generate organotypic states, identify TFs lacking expression in hBVOs, and find that induced LEF1 overexpression increases brain vasculature specificity. Finally, we map vascular disease-associated genes to hBVO cell states and analyze an hBVO model of diabetes. Altogether, we provide a comprehensive cell state atlas of hBVO development and illuminate the power and limitation of hBVOs for translational research.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
