Tumor Angiogenesis
Tumor Angiogenesis: has been thought to be a valid treatment of many solid tumors and in particular their metastases. Tumor angiogenesis is initiated by the tumor itself. As soon as the malignancy grows to a certain size it becomes hypoxic and starts to secrete angiogenic growth molecules. Attempting to control angiogenesis is proving to be a promising tactic in limiting cancer progression.
