Research Abstract |
To improve the prognosis of cancer patients, it is essential to inhibit the capacity of cancer cells for hematogenous metastasis as well as their proliferative capacity. EG-VEGF factor enhances the angiogenesis and cell invasion in colon cancer. EG-VEGF antibody that we established, inhibibites the angiogenesis and cell inavasion in colon cancer. EG-VEGF molecule-targeted therapy has the potential for improving survival rates.
