The plasticity of adipose tissue requires highly regulated changes in accompanying blood
vessels. In obesity, adipose tissue angiogenesis plays a complex role to support tissue
growth and promote metabolic disease. Emerging research (Sung et al., 2013) indicates that
exploiting the mediators of adipose tissue angiogenesis may offer the possibility for
therapeutic interventions.
