Abstract

Angiogenesis is essential for normal and neoplastic tissue growth. In a recent issue of Nature, Komuro and colleagues (Sano et al., 2007) describe how p53 expression in hypertrophying heart muscle impairs HIF-1-mediated neovascularization and contributes to functional decompensation of pressure-overload cardiac hypertrophy.
