The angiogenic phenotypes of MT-8 and MT-9 murine tumors are different
January 14th, 2004
The angiogenic phenotypes of MT-8 and MT-9 murine tumors are different. According to recent research published in the journal Microscopy and Microanalysis, "angiogenesis, a biologic process whereby endothelial cells divide and migrate to form new blood vessels, is a key step in tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis. In the present study, we investigated the differences in angioarchitecture between two different tumors induced by cloned cell lines (MT-8 and MT-9), derived from a transplantable rat malignant fibrous histiocytoma, by scanning electron microscopy of vascular corrosion casts. During a 3-week observation period after implantation, the growth of MT-8...
