Abstract

Angiogenesis associated with follicle and corpus luteum cyclicity and ovulation is an important example of recurrent capillary development in an adult physiological system. Angiogenesis is ordinarily stimulated in response to trauma, infection, inflammation or neoplasia. Such pathological conditions have offered the most common experimental models with which to study the control of capillary growth (1). Progress in our understanding of angiogenesis in general has stimulated a fresh look at this process in the ovary (2).
