Abstract: Angiogenic balance in physiological conditions is determined by the levels of angiogenesis activators and inhibitors. Vasohibin is a negative feedback regulator of angiogenesis inhibitor that can be induced by VEGF or bFGF. Vasohibin may play an important role in the regulation of angiogenesis under physiological and pathological conditions. Currently, vasohibin is an important research topic in a relevant field of medicine.

Key words: Angiogenesis, Vasohibin, Negative regulation
