Abstract
The present invention provides a method for enhancing the level of perfusion of blood to a target location in a host comprising establishing a gradient of an angiogenic mediator of increasing concentration from a source location (e.g., an angiogenically functional location) in the host to a target location (e.g., an angiogenically dysfunctional location) in the host, such that the level of perfusion of blood to the target location in the host is enhanced.
