Abstract:
Malignant tumor blood vessels,with phenotypes that are similar to high endothelial venules(HEVs)in secondary lymphoid or-gans(SLO),are known as tumor-associated high endothelial venules(TA-HEVs).The formation mechanism of TA-HEVs is similar to that of HEVs.Moreover,TA-HEVs play an important role in promoting the infiltration of lymphocytes into tumor tissues.With ongoing research,the positive effect of TA-HEVs in the context of radiotherapy,chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and antiangiogenic therapy is being elucidated.The clinical value is gradually becoming prominent,and the mechanisms and pathways involved with TA-HEVs are still under investigation.
