2018, Biochemical and Biophysical Research CommunicationsCitation Excerpt :Metastasis of malignant tumor is a complex biological behavior and angiogenesis is the morphological basis of tumor growth and metastasis. Previous research demonstrated that micro-vascular density is closely related to the metastasis, occurrence and prognosis of a variety of tumors, including osteosarcoma [7]. Apoptosis is an important self-destruction process in cells which helps to scavenge aging and abnormal cells.
Correlation of microvessel parameters in invasive ductal carcinoma of the breast and fibroadenomas: a morphometric study
2016, Annals of Diagnostic PathologyCitation Excerpt :Hence, for determination of cutoff between benign and malignant lesions, MVD was not as reliable as other parameters viz. VC, VCSA, %TVCSA, and TVBD. According to the Poiseuille's equation, flow rate of blood through a capillary is directly proportional to the fourth power of its radius [25-27]. One can use the information of VC with MVD to estimate blood flow rate per unit area of tissue.
Tumor Angiogenesis in Breast Cancer: Pericytes and Maturation Does Not Correlate with Lymph Node Metastasis and Molecular Subtypes
2016, Clinical Breast CancerCitation Excerpt :In the present study, the mean MVD was 145 vessels/mm2, higher than that reported in other studies such as that by Kanjanapanjapol et al,12 but lower than that reported by Biesaga et al,13 in which the mean MVD was 182.9 vessels vessels/mm2. Although studies have reported significant correlations between the vessel count and tumor size in patients with breast cancer, in our study, the MVD did not increase in proportion to the tumor size.14-16 The results of the present study, however, showed a significantly greater MVD for grade 3 tumors than for grade 2 and 1 tumors, which has not been reported by any previous studies.
