Background The formation of blood vessels within solid tumors directly contributes to cancer
growth and metastasis. Until recently, tumor vasculature was thought to occur exclusively via …

As in normal tissues, solid tumors depend on vascular networks to supply blood, oxygen,
and nutrients. Tumor blood vessels are formed by common processes of neovascularization …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a new tumor blood supply in some highly aggressive
malignant tumors. We previously reported VM in human gallbladder carcinomas, 3-D …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a vascular‐like structure which can mimic the embryonic
vascular network pattern to nourish the tumour tissue. As a unique perfusion way, VM is …

Vasculogenic Mimicry (VM) refers to the capacity to form a blood network from aggressive
cancer cells in an independent way of endothelial cells, to provide nutrients and oxygen …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) has increasingly been recognized as a form of angiogenesis. In
VM, epithelial cells are integrated into the malignant tumor vasculature. An association has …

Angiogenesis is an important process for the cell growth of normal and tumor tissues.
Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a newly described vascular network structure that was first …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM), a process involving the formation of a tubular structure by highly
invasive and genetically dysregulated tumor cells, can supplement the function of blood …

The gene-expression profile of aggressive cutaneous and uveal melanoma cells resembles
that of an undifferentiated, embryonic-like cell. The plasticity of certain types of cancer cell …

Vasculogenic mimicry (VM), referring to vasculogenic structures lined by tumor cells, can be
distinguished from angiogenesis, and is responsible for the aggressiveness and metastatic …
