Experimental and computational analyses reveal dynamics of tumor vessel cooption and optimal treatment strategies
Voutouri, Chrysovalantis; Kirkpatrick, Nathaniel D.; Chung, Euiheon; Mpekris, Fotios; Baish, James W.; Munn, Lance L.; Fukumura, Dai; Stylianopoulos, Triantafyllos; Jain, Rakesh K. (2019)Cooption of the host vasculature is a strategy that some cancers use to sustain tumor progression without—or before—angiogenesis or in response to antiangiogenic therapy. Facilitated by certain growth factors, cooption can ...

Reengineering the Tumor Vasculature: Improving Drug Delivery and Efficacy
Stylianopoulos, Triantafyllos; Munn, Lance L.; Jain, Rakesh K. (2018)A solid tumor is like an aberrant organ - comprised of cancer cells and a variety of host cells embedded in an extracellular matrix - nourished by blood vessels and drained by lymphatic vessels. In its journey from the ...
