VEGFA and tumour angiogenesis.
In this review we summarize the current understanding of signal transduction downstream of vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) and its receptor VEGFR2, and the relationship between these signal transduction pathways and the hallmark responses of VEGFA, angiogenesis and vascular permeability. These physiological responses involve a number of effectors, including extracellular signal-reg...
متن کاملImaging tumour angiogenesis
The development of neovasculature via angiogenesis is a vital component of many normal physiological processes and a number of disease states. Neovascularisation is critical for the growth of malignant tumours and for the development and survival of metastases. Recently, the potential of non-invasive imaging for the functional characterisation of neovasculature has become realised. In this revi...
متن کاملTumour microenvironment and angiogenesis
Anti-angiogenic therapy has increased the progression-free survival of many cancer patients but has had little effect on overall survival, even in colon cancer (average 6–8 weeks) due to resistance. The current licensed targeted therapies all inhibit VEGF signalling (Table 1). Many mechanisms of resistance to anti-VEGF therapy have been identified that enable cancers to bypass the angiogenic bl...
متن کاملTumour-induced Angiogenesis: A Review
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, has become a broad subject and is a very active area for current research. This paper describes the main biological events involved in angiogenesis and their importance in cancer progression. In the first section, a fundamental overview of tumour biology is presented. In the second section, the biology of healthy blood vessels is described and, ...
