Review examines potential for improved use of anti-angiogenic agents in cancer therapy

Most tumors release various signaling molecules to support their incessant growth, invasion, and metastasis. Some of these molecules, called tumor angiogenesis factors (TAFs), can stimulate the formation of new blood vessels, which is crucial for tumor growth. It has been shown that blocking the function of TAFs by chemical or biological molecules can shrink or […]
