Signaling Pathways

Tumor Angiogenesis

Tumor angiogenesis is the proliferation of blood vessels that supply tumors with a supportive microenvironment rich in nutrients and oxygen that are required for growth, maintenance, and metastasis. It is mediated by of tumor vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), which is expressed in most types of cancer.
