TLDR
These experiments demonstrate that: (1) A hypoxic tissue gradient is mandatory for wound-healing angiogenesis, (2) when the hypoxic gradient is destroyed capillary growth cases, and (3) inspired oxygen concentrations affect the rate and density of capillary Growth.

Platelet-rich plasma: Growth factor enhancement for bone grafts

TL;DR: Monoclonal antibody assessment of cancellous cellular marrow grafts demonstrated cells that were capable of responding to the growth factors by bearing cell membrane receptors and evidenced a radiographic maturation rate 1.62 to 2.16 times that of grafts without platelet-rich plasma.

Continuous and Discrete Mathematical Models of Tumor-induced Angiogenesis

TL;DR: This paper presents both continuous and discrete mathematical models which describe the formation of the capillary sprout network in response to chemical stimuli supplied by a solid tumor and takes into account essential endothelial cell-extracellular matrix interactions via the inclusion of the matrix macromolecule fibronectin.
