Angiogenesis in Wound Healing following Pharmacological and Toxicological Exposures

Toxicological and pharmacological exposures may accelerate or impede wound healing and tissue repair. These exposures impact the wound healing cascade and steps within the process including (1) hemostasis, (2) the inflammatory stage, (3) proliferation, and (4) maturation. Angiogenesis plays a critical role during the wound healing process via clot invasion and organization of vasculature throughout new connective tissue. This review examines how...
