Introduction Angiogenesis refers to tissues vascularization process that entails the formation of novel blood capillary vessels from previous blood vessels. Angiogenesis happens as a usual biological process in wound healing, in ischemia response and in the reproductive cycle of female. However, abnormal angiogenesis may happen resulting to both malignant and non-malignant diseases. Abnormal angiogenesis is […]
