A member asked:

What's the inside lining of the blood vessels like?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Endothelium: Blood vessels are lined by endothelial cells. These are thin flattened large cells that are metabolically active. The electrical charge on the endothelial cells and blood cells keeps them apart.
