Are there any similarities between angiogenesis and vasculogenesis?

Posted October 10, 2023


Answer

One similarity between the two processes is that both result in the synthesis of new blood vessels. Both processes also occur via the involvement of endothelial growth factors and cells. Additionally, both are pre-determined by the genetics of an individual.
