Abstract:
This study collects past and recent data about neovascularization process and angiogenic factors. Development of the collateral circulation in the heart in response to gradual and progressive coronary artery occlusion was described. Pharmaceutical and surgical methods of angiogenesis induction was discussed. Importance of angiogenic process in many both physiological and pathological situations was noticed. It was pointed out that discovery and cloning of angiogenic cytokines maybe very useful in future treatment.
