• Angiogenesis — How does angiogenesis work?
  Angiogenesis is the growth of new blood vessels from vessels that already exist, driven mainly by VEGF signalling in oxygen-starved tissue.
• Inflammation — How does inflammation work?
  Inflammation is the body's first response to injury or infection: vessels widen, immune cells arrive, and cytokines coordinate clean-up and repair.
• Tissue repair — How does tissue repair work?
  Tissue repair works in four overlapping stages — clotting, inflammation, rebuilding, and remodelling — and usually ends in scar rather than perfect regeneration.
• Wound healing — How does wound healing work?
  Wound healing closes a break in the skin by clotting, clearing debris, resurfacing the gap with new epithelium, and remodelling the collagen underneath.
