摘要: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a hypervascular malignancy and the third leading cause of death worldwide. The disease has multiple predisposing risk factors limited treatment options. Although precise mechanism(s) underlying HCC unknown, several pathways have been implicated in its development. vascular tumor angiogenesis believed to play an important role progression. Hypoxia increase expression endothelial growth factor (VEGF) through hypoxia-inducible factor-1α. VEGF angiopoietin 2 (Ang2) are expressed on cancer cells, whereas 1 (Ang1) occurs predominantly support cells large blood as well stromal, endothelial, cells. Ang2 concomitantly agonist antagonist during remodeling. This prevents stability allows stimulate along with growing vessels, destabilizing integrity. Inhibiting can, other hand, promote vesicular decrease angiogenesis. We discuss this review therapeutic target alone or combination therapies.
