The generation of new microvasculature progresses by the process of angiogenesis, which involves the invasion and proliferation of endothelial cells from existing blood vessels into the local environment. In recent years, de novo generation of endothelial cells from circulating or local precursor endothelial cells is thought to also contribute to the neovasculature, a process that is referred to as...
