Anti-angiogenic Activity of a 3-Hydroxy Flavone Derivative

By Shakti P. Pattanayak

This Book entitled "Anti-Angiogenic Efficacy of a 3-Hydroxy Flavone Derivative" deals with evaluation and description of anti-angiogenic activity of flavonoid quercetin. The body controls angiogenesis by producing a precise balance of growth and inhibitory factors in healthy tissues. When this balance is disturbed, the result is either too much or too little angiogenesis. Abnormal blood vessel growth either excessive or insufficient is now recognized as a "common denominator" underlying many deadly and debilitating conditions including cancer, skin diseases, age related blindness, diabetic ulcers, cardiovascular disease, stroke and many others.
