Stem-Like Ovarian Cancer Cells Can Serve as Tumor Vascular Progenitors
5 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
Neovascularization is required for solid tumor maintenance, progression, and metastasis. The most described contribution of cancer cells in tumor neovascularization is the secretion of factors, which attract various cell types to establish a microenvironment that promotes blood vessel formation.
