Angiogenesis

Description

The development of new blood vessels, termed as angiogenesis, is essential to embryonic growth and throughout life for physiological repair processes. When dysregulated, angiogenesis contributes to numerous malignant, ischemic, inflammatory, infectious, and immune disorders. Molecular insights into these processes, the development of molecular imaging technologies to monitor these fundamental parameters, and new therapeutic approaches are therefore particularly promising tools to understand the underlying pathologies and expand the available therapeutic options in abnormal angiogenesis.

The main focus of this special issue will be on mechanism of angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, arteriogenesis, therapeutic angiogenesis (including artificial vessels), endothelial progenitors, and molecular imaging angiogenesis processes (especially multimodality molecular imaging). We particularly take an interest in manuscripts that report of angiogenic events in cardiovascular diseases, vascular malformations, and cancer. Any angiogenesis related animal research, applications in humans or transition including either excessive or insufficient angiogenesis, and any approach for angiogenic therapy or molecular imaging of angiogenesis will be covered. Original paper and review are both welcome.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

  • Mechanisms of blood vessel formation
  • Endothelial progenitors in angiogenesis
  • Artificial blood vessel
  • Stem cell therapy and angiogenesis
  • Molecular imaging in angiogenesis
  • Angiogenesis in ischemia diseases
  • Angiogenesis in cancer
