Abstract
Angiogenesis plays a significant role during normal growth and pathological conditions such as inflammation, wound healing and tumour growth. However, our knowledge of angiogenesis is not so extensive as justified by the significance of this research front. Thus, for example, the “International Symposium on Angiogenesis” 1991 in St. Gallen as well as the meeting “Angiogenesis in Health and Disease” of the NATO Advanced Study Institute 1991 in Porto Hydra (Greece), where the latest experimental results were presented and the current interdisciplinary research on angiogenesis was summarised, showed that basic questions still remain unresolved despite extensive and detailed knowledge in various fields.
