Angiogenesis is the growth of new blood vessels from blood vessels that already exist. Angiogenesis happens in normal growth and helps aid in the healing of injuries or wounds.
Neovascularization is different from angiogenesis by the way it appears. Capillary buds will grow out, or protrude, and will out grow their area when afflicted with angiogenesis.
As telomeres get shorter a cell loses the ability to divide
Yes, Herceptin is a drug used in certain form of breast cancer which overexpresses the HER-2 protein, enabling angiogenesis and rapid tumour growth. Herceptin is the trade name for monoclonal antibodies against the HER-2 receptor which block these, limiting their function and improving patient prognosis. There are other examples to, monoclonal antibodies against IgE antibody to prevent type 1 hypersentivity e.g. peanut allergy.
Prolactin has important cell cycle related functions as a growth-, differentiating- and anti-apoptotic factor. As a growth factor binding to cytokine like receptors it has also profound influence on hematopoiesis, angiogenesis and is involved in the regulation of blood clotting through several pathways. In summary, "more than 300 separate actions of PRL have been reported in various vertebrates, including effects on water and salt balance, growth and development, endocrinology and metabolism, brain and behavior, reproduction, and immune regulation and protection". Prolactin acts in endocrine, autocrine, and paracrine manner through the prolactin receptor and a large number of cytokine receptors.

The term for new formation of blood vessels is angiogenesis.
the process through which the tumor supports its growth by creating its own blood supply is called angiogenesis
Angiogenesis
The inhibition of formation of blood vessels feeding the tumor and contributing to tumor growth.
B. Angiogenesis
The Angiogenesis Foundation was created in 1994.
An angiogenesis is the formation and development of new blood vessels.
Neovascularization is different from angiogenesis by the way it appears. Capillary buds will grow out, or protrude, and will out grow their area when afflicted with angiogenesis.

Plants undergo morphogenesis instead of angiogenesis.
A tumor that has grown to a certain size needs nutrients and oxygen, otherwise it won’'t grow any further. The recruitment of new blood vessels that infiltrate the tumor (angiogenesis), allow the innermost part of the tumor to receive nutrients and oxygen and therefore, continue to grow.
I believe it is heart related.
