Abstract excerpt
Correlations of malignancy grade, immunologic phenotype and angiogenic capacity were studied in B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas grafted onto chorioallantoic membranes of chicken embryos. The angiogenic response elicited by the tumors was significantly greater than the response to normal lymph nodes, but it did not correlate with either the malignancy grade or the immunologic phenotype of the tumors. The elevated...
