Abstract:
Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a new tumor angiogenesis mode independent of endothelial cells and an important component of tumor microcirculation. The formation mechanism of VM in glioma is complex and variable. Various molecules and signal pathways (such as hypoxia induction factor and matrix metalloproteasefamily) interact in the formation process, to jointly regulate the formation of VM. The in-depth study of molecular mechanism can provide a theoretical basis for drug research and development against VM formation.
