Abstract:
Angiogenesis is the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels. This process is essential during embryonic development, wound healing, and regeneration as well as during several pathological conditions such as cancer. In this chapter, we describe an assay to measure angiogenesis in vivo in mice - the subcutaneous sponge assay.
