Mechanisms of vasculogenic mimicry in hypoxic tumor microenvironments

Abstract Background Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) is a recently discovered angiogenetic process found in many malignant tumors, and is different from the traditional angiogenetic process involving vascular endothelium. It involves the formation of microvascular channels composed of tumor cells; therefor...
