Angiogenesis in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) has been extensively investigated as a promising druggable biological process. Nonetheless, targeting angiogenesis has failed to impact overall survival (OS) in patients with mCRPC ...

Mechanisms of Action of Novel Drugs Targeting Angiogenesis-Promoting Matrix Metalloproteinases
Angiogenesis is facilitated by the proteolytic activities of members of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family. More specifically, MMP-9 and MT1-MMP directly regulate angiogenesis, while several studies indicate a role for MMP-2 as well.

Lung cancer growth is dependent on angiogenesis. In recent years, angiogenesis inhibitors have attracted more and more attention as potential lung cancer treatments. Current anti-angiogenic drugs targeting VEGF or receptor tyrosine kinases mainly inhibit

Hopf bifurcation of a free boundary problem modeling tumor growth with angiogenesis and two time delays [PDF]
This paper concerns a free boundary problem modeling tumor growth with angiogenesis and two time delays. The two delays represent the time taken for cells to undergo mitosis and modify the rate of cell loss because of apoptosis, respectively. We study the stability of stationary solutions and find that Hopf bifurcation occurs under some conditions ...

Global Dormancy of Metastases Due to Systemic Inhibition of Angiogenesis [PDF]
Autopsy studies of adults dying of non-cancer causes have shown that virtually all of us possess occult, cancerous lesions. This suggests that, for most individuals, cancer will become dormant and not progress, while only in some will it become symptomatic disease.

Angiogenesis, Thrombospondin-1 and Cervical Carcinogenesis
Angiogenesis, the growth of new vessels from existing vasculature, plays an essential role in tumor development. The process involves interaction among cancer cells, endothelial cells, and components of the extracellular matrix, and is regulated by the ...

Tumor-associated high endothelial venules (TA-HEVs) mediate lymphocyte entry into tumors. Therefore, combined anti-angiogenesis therapy and programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors might stimulate tumor immunity.

Angiogenesis and angiogenesis inhibitors in paediatric diseases
Angiogenesis, the generation of new capillaries from existing blood vessels, is rarely observed in the healthy organism, but can present during various paediatric diseases. In this review, we describe recent progress in the understanding of pathological angiogenesis and approaches for an improved therapy of angiogenic childhood diseases.

Anti-angiogenesis in prostate cancer: knocked down but not out
Angiogenesis is a very complex physiological process, which involves multiple pathways that are dependent on the homeostatic balance between the growth factors (stimulators and inhibitors).

Endogenous Matrix-Derived Inhibitors of Angiogenesis
Endogenous inhibitors of angiogenesis are proteins or fragments of proteins that are formed in the body, which can inhibit the angiogenic process. These molecules can be found both in the circulation and sequestered in the extracellular matrix (ECM ...
