Fig ?. (C) HUVECs lesional area measured every 2 days for 16 days. (D) Vascular volume at day 15 measured by analysis of color Doppler 3D image stacks. When compared with the vehicle-treated group, the lesional area was significantly smaller in the rapamycin-treated group from day 4 to day 16 and in the TIE2-TKI–treated group from day 8 to day 14. | |||

Also in malignant cancers, combinations of pro-angiogenic signals activate endothelial cells attracted to the tumor microenvironment, from there enhancing vascular growth. It has previously been suggested that inhibiting angiogenesis by targeting the regulation and cross-interaction of such signals could form the basis of efforts aimed at engineering cancer therapeutics. Unfortunately, that method has only limited clinical benefit. | Also in malignant cancers, combinations of pro-angiogenic signals activate endothelial cells attracted to the tumor microenvironment, from there enhancing vascular growth.
