Hallmarks of cancer: the next generation.

TL;DR: Recognition of the widespread applicability of these concepts will increasingly affect the development of new means to treat human cancer.

New functions for the matrix metalloproteinases in cancer progression

TL;DR: It is shown that the MMPs have functions other than promotion of invasion, have substrates other than components of the extracellular matrix, and that they function before invasion in the development of cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of angiogenesis

TL;DR: Understanding of the molecular basis underlying angiogenesis, particularly from the study of mice lacking some of the signalling systems involved, has greatly improved, and may suggest new approaches for treating conditions such as cancer that depend onAngiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

The tumour suppressor protein VHL targets hypoxia-inducible factors for oxygen-dependent proteolysis

TL;DR: It is indicated that the interaction between HIF-1 and pVHL is iron dependent, and that it is necessary for the oxygen-dependent degradation of HIF α-subunits, which may underlie the angiogenic phenotype of VHL-associated tumours.

Tumor angiogenesis and metastasis--correlation in invasive breast carcinoma.

TL;DR: The number of microvessels per 200x field in the areas of most intensive neovascularization in an invasive breast carcinoma may be an independent predictor of metastatic disease either in axillary lymph nodes or at distant sites (or both).
Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular endothelial growth factor induced by hypoxia may mediate hypoxia-initiated angiogenesis.

TL;DR: It is shown that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) probably functions as a hypoxia-inducible angiogenic factor and is specifically induced in a subset of glioblastoma cells distinguished by their immediate proximity to necrotic foci and the clustering of capillaries alongside VEGF-producing cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tumor cells secrete a vascular permeability factor that promotes accumulation of ascites fluid.

TL;DR: Tumor ascites fluids from guinea pigs, hamsters, and mice contain activity that rapidly increases microvascular permeability, and this activity is secreted by these tumor cells and a variety of other tumor cell lines in vitro.

Integrin alpha v beta 3 antagonists promote tumor regression by inducing apoptosis of angiogenic blood vessels

TL;DR: In this article, a single intravascular injection of a cyclic peptide or monoclonal antibody antagonist of integrin alpha v beta 3 disrupts ongoing angiogenesis on the chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM).
