Abstract:
Angiogenesis plays an important role in solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Angiopoietins act as essential regulators in this process,complementary with another mediator-VEGF. In the development of hematologic malignancies, the expression of Angs/Tie-2 system is identified abnormal, especially for Ang-2, whose expression and prognostic impact have gained significant attention recently.
