Angiogenesis

Angiogenesis—the formation of new blood vessels from existing vasculature—is an integral part of both normal and pathological processes. During angiogenesis, endothelial cells disrupt the surrounding basement membrane, migrate toward an angiogenic stimulus, proliferate to provide additional cells that will form the new vessel, and reorganize to create the necessary threedimensional vessel structure. In vitro assays are widely used to study these functions in the presence of either angiogenic or antiangiogenic agents.

Invitrogen offers a diverse array of products and protocols for detecting endothelial tube formation and cell proliferation as well as angiogenesis gene-related products.

Endothelial Tube Formation

Endothelial Tube Formation We have recently developed a new protocol for one of the most well-established assays to model the formation of 3-D vessels.

Endothelial Cell Proliferation

Click-iT ® Cell Proliferation Click-iT® Cell Proliferation assays offer accurate measurement of endothelial cell proliferation.
