Chemotaxis, the migration of cells in response to chemical stimulus, is an important concept in the angiogenesis model. In most angiogenesis models, chemotaxis is defined as the migration of a sprout tip in response to the upgradient of the VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor). However, we fou...
