Angiogenesis in acute and chronic leukemias and myelodysplastic syndromes

TL;DR: The data suggest that vascularity and angiogenic factors are increased in leukemias and MDS and may play a role in theLeukemogenic process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vasculogenic Mimicry and Tumor Angiogenesis

TL;DR: The unique patterning characteristic of vasculogenic mimicry provides an opportunity to design noninvasive imaging techniques to detect highly aggressive neoplasms and their metastases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF)-Mediated Angiogenesis Is Associated with Enhanced Endothelial Cell Survival and Induction of Bcl-2 Expression

TL;DR: Results suggest that the angiogenic activity attributed to VEGF may be due in part to its ability to enhance endothelial cell survival by inducing expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD105 is important for angiogenesis: evidence and potential applications.

TL;DR: CD105 is a promising vascular target that can be used for tumor imaging, prognosis, and bears therapeutic potential in patients with solid tumors and other angiogenic diseases.

Angiogenesis in cancer, vascular, rheumatoid and other disease

TL;DR: Think of the switch to the angiogenic phenotype as a net balance of positive and negative regulators of blood vessel growth, which may dictate whether a primary tumour grows rapidly or slowly and whether metastases grow at all.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

What is the evidence that tumors are angiogenesis dependent

TL;DR: Method of treating a wound or burn which comprises directly dressing its surface with non-woven fabric comprising staple fibers of spun, regenerated collagen substantially free of telopeptides is disclosed.
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

Seminars in Medicine of the Beth Israel Hospital, Boston. Clinical applications of research on angiogenesis.

TL;DR: The realization that tumor growth requires new blood vessels and the identification of chemical factors that mediate angiogenesis have broadened the understanding of pathologic processes and opened new avenues to the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases.
