How Does Pathological Angiogenesis Differ from Normal Angiogenesis?
Normal angiogenesis is tightly regulated by a balance of pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors. This regulation ensures proper tissue development and repair. In pathological angiogenesis, this balance is disrupted, often resulting in excessive or insufficient blood vessel formation. This can lead to inadequate oxygen supply, abnormal tissue growth, and other complications.
