Induction of tumor lymphangiogenesis by VEGF-C promotes breast cancer metastasis

TL;DR: The occurrence and biological significance of intratumoral lymphangiogenesis within human breast cancers after orthotopic transplantation onto nude mice are established and VEGF-C is identified as a molecular link between tumor lymphang iogenesis and metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

LYVE-1, a New Homologue of the CD44 Glycoprotein, Is a Lymph-specific Receptor for Hyaluronan

TL;DR: LYVE-1 is the first lymph-specific HA receptor to be characterized and is a uniquely powerful marker for lymph vessels themselves.
Journal ArticleDOI

VEGF-D promotes the metastatic spread of tumor cells via the lymphatics.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that lymphatics can be established in solid tumors and implicates VEGF family members in determining the route of metastatic spread and could be blocked with an antibody specific for V EGF-D.
