Molecular Pathways Molecular Pathways: Vasculogenic Mimicry in Tumor Cells: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Implications
Tumor cell vasculogenic mimicry (VM) describes the functional plasticity of aggressive cancer cells forming de novo vascular networks, thereby providing a perfusion pathway for rapidly growing tumors, transporting fluid from leaky vessels, and/or connecting with endothelial-lined vasculature. The underlying induction of VM seems to be related to hypoxia, which may also promote the plastic, tran...

متن کاملSignalling pathways in vasculogenic mimicry.
Solid tumour growth is dependent on the development of an adequate blood supply. For years, sprouting angiogenesis has been considered an exclusive mechanism of tumour vascularization. However, over the last years, several other mechanisms have been identified, including vessel-co-option, intussusception, recruitment of endothelial precursor cells (EPCs) and even mechanisms that do not involve ...
متن کاملVasculogenic mimicry and tumor metastasis.
Vasculogenic mimicry (VM), a microvascular channel made up of nonendothelial cells, has been accepted as a new model of neovascularization in aggressive tumors, owning to the specific capacity of malignant cells to form vessel-like networks which provide sufficient blood supply for tumor growth. Multiple molecular mechanisms, especially vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin, erythropoietin-produci...
متن کاملInvestigation of vasculogenic mimicry in intracranial hemangiopericytoma.
Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) has increasingly been recognized as a form of angiogenesis. Previous studies have shown that the existence of VM is associated with poor clinical prognosis in certain malignant tumors. However, whether VM is present and clinically significant in intracranial hemangiopericytoma (HPC) is unknown. The present study was therefore designed to examine the expression of VM in...
