Endothelial cell precursors that establish the primitive vascular network
|
Angioblasts
|
|
Cell that links hematopoietic and vascular systems and embryonic vascular systems during embryonic development
|
Hemangioblast
*Produce hematopoietic stem cells and angioblasts |
|
Cell that proliferates and migrates to peripheral sites and differentiate into endothelial cells that form arteries, veins and lymphatics, pericytes and smooth muscle cells
|
Angioblasts
|
|
Growth factor that increases vascular permeability, stimulates endothelial cell precursors from bone marrow, and increases proliferation of the cells at the site of angiogenesis
|
VEGF
*come from endothelium and macrophage |
|
Growth factor that enhances endothelial proliferation, differentiation, and migration
|
FGF-2
*come from endothelium, macrophage and fibroblast |
|
Cytokine that recruits smooth muscle cells
|
PDGF
*come from platelet, monocyte, smooth muscle cell, and macrophage |
|
The moment at which a tumor begins to over express pro-angiogenic factors such as VEGF
|
Angiogenic Switch
|
|
Angioblast like cells stored in adult bone marrow
|
Endothelial precursor cells
|
|
Receptor which stimulates the proliferation of endothelial cells and endothelial precursor cells within the bone marrow
|
VEGFR-2
*also increases vascular permeability |
|
Destabilize cell matrix interactions and promote angiogenesis
|
Matricellular proteins
|
|
Remodel tissues during endothelial invasion and release VEGF and FDF-2
|
Proteinases
*plasminogen activator and metalloproteinases |
