Angiopoietin is part of a family of vascular growth factors that play a role in embryonic and postnatal angiogenesis. Angiopoietin signaling most directly corresponds with angiogenesis the process by which new arteries and veins form from preexisting blood cells. Angiogenesis proceeds through sprouting endothelial cell migration proliferation and vessel destabilization and stabilization. They are responsible for assembling and disassembling the endothelial lining of blood vessels.
