Angiogenesis is a multistep process, which involves activation,
proliferation and directed migration of endothelial cells to form
new capillaries from existing vessels. Under physiological
conditions, in the adult organisms angiogenesis is extremely slow,
yet it can be activated for a limited time only in situations such
as ovulation or wound healing. In a number of disease states,
however, there is a derangement of angiogenesis, which can
contribute to the pathology of these conditions. Hence,
understanding the molecular biology of endothelial cell activation
and differentiation and the mechanisms involved in the regulation
of angiogenesis, could explain the derangement in disease states
and also provide the basis for developing promoters or suppressors
of angiogenesis for clinical applications. This book contains the
proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "Angiogenesis:
Molecular Biology, Oinical Aspects" held in Rhodes, Greece, from
June 16-27, 1993. This meeting was a comprehensive review of the
various aspects of angiogenesis such as embryonic development,
endothelial cell heterogeneity and tissue specificity, molecular
biology of endothelial cell, mechanisms for the regulation of
angiogenesis, disease states in which angiogenesis is involved and
potential application of promoters or suppressors of angiogenesis.
The presentations and discussions of the meeting provided an
opportunity for investigators from many different areas of basic
science and medicine to exchange information, evaluate the present
status and provide future research directions in the field of
angiogenesis.
