Angiogenesis is the physiological process involving the growth of new blood vessels from pre-existing vessels. Though there has been some debate over this, vasculogenesis is the term used for spontaneous blood-vessel formation, and intussusception is the term for new blood vessel formation by splitting of existing ones.
Angiogenesis is a normal process in growth and development, as well as in wound healing. However, this is also a fundamental step in the transition of tumors from a dormant state to a malignant state.
Types of Angiogenesis
Sprouting Angiogenesis
Sprouting angiogenesis was originally the only known form of angiogenesis. It is very simple and occurs in several stages. First, the basement membrane degrades to allow endothelial cells to escape from the vessel walls. The endothelial cells then proliferate into the surrounding matrix and form solid sprouts connecting neighboring vessels. These sprouts then become a full-fledged vessel lumen as cells migrate to the site of angiogenesis. Sprouting is slow as it is reliant on cell proliferation but is able to spread new vessels across gaps in the vasculature. It is markedly different from splitting angiogenesis, however, because it forms entirely new vessels as opposed to splitting existing vessels (Burri, Hlushchuk, & Djonov, 2004).
