Blood vessels supply all body tissues with nutrients and oxygen, take away waste products
and allow the arrival of immune cells and other cells (pericytes, smooth muscle cells) that …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a blood supply system independent of endothelial vessels in
tumor cells from different origins. It reflects the plasticity of aggressive tumor cells that …

In 1999, Maniotis reported that blood vessels of highly aggressive uveal melanomas are
formed by tumor cells instead of endothelial cells. He termed this novel concept in tumor …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) describes the process utilized by highly aggressive cancer cells
to generate vascular-like structures without the presence of endothelial cells. VM has been …

Tumor cell vasculogenic mimicry (VM), also dubbed vascular mimicry, describes the
plasticity of aggressive cancer cells forming de novo vascular networks and is associated …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a brand‐new tumour vascular paradigm independent of
angiogenesis that describes the specific capacity of aggressive cancer cells to form vessel …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a functional microcirculation pattern in malignant tumors
accompanied by endothelium-dependent vessels and mosaic vessels. VM has been …

Solid tumour growth is dependent on the development of an adequate blood supply. For
years, sprouting angiogenesis has been considered an exclusive mechanism of tumour …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is the formation of vascular channels lacking endothelial cells.
These channels are lined by tumor cells with cancer stem cell features, positive for periodic …

In 1999, The American Journal of Pathology published an article entitled “Vascular Channel
Formation by Human Melanoma Cells in Vivo and in Vitro: Vasculogenic Mimicry,” by …
