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
