There are two main routes for tumor spread and metastasis, the blood vasculature and the lymphatic system. A wide range of human carcinomas, including lung, colon and breast cancer, spread to distant sites via the lymphatic system. Preclinical and clinical ...
Tissue morphogenesis and remodeling is often orchestrated by cell-secreted proteins, referred to as morphogens that can trigger cellular responses in addition to modifying the local extracellular matrix (ECM). Of specific interest is the distribution of ce ...
The goals of tissue engineering include recapitulating specific tissue functions for regenerative medicine and developing in vitro models of human tissues to study human physiology and pathophysiology and for testing and screening drugs before expensive cl ...
Tumor-mobilized bone marrow-derived CD11b(+) myeloid cells promote tumor angiogenesis, but how and when these cells acquire proangiogenic properties is not fully elucidated. Here, we show that CD11b(+) myelomonocytic cells develop proangiogenic properties ...
BACKGROUND: Our earlier reports demonstrated that membrane-bound semaphorin 5A (SEMA5A) is expressed in aggressive pancreatic cancer cells and tumours, and promotes tumour growth and metastasis. In this study, we examine whether (1) pancreatic cancer cells ...
ADAM17 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease 17) is a major sheddase for numerous growth factors, cytokines, receptors, and cell adhesion molecules and is often overexpressed in malignant cells. It is generally accepted that ADAM17 promotes tumor development ...
Interstitial flow is an important biophysical cue that can affect capillary morphogenesis, tumor cell migration, and fibroblast remodeling of the extracellular matrix, among others. Current models that incorporate interstitial flow and that are suitable fo ...
Most carcinomas spread to distant sites through lymphatic vessels. Several preclinical and clinical studies have shown a positive correlation between the incidence of lymph node metastasis and secretion of the lymphatic growth factor vascular endothelial g ...
A limited number of receptor tyrosine kinases (e.g., ErbB and fibroblast growth factor receptor families) have been genetically linked to breast cancer development. Here, we investigated the contribution of the Ret receptor tyrosine kinase to breast tumor ...
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) can be used to cause vascular collapse and blood flow stasis of the irradiated pathological neovascularisation appearing in several diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and cancer. We hypothesized that this PDT ...
