Endogenous inhibitors of angiogenesis

Ribatti, Domenico·2009·Leukemia Research

Abstract

Under physiological conditions, angiogenesis is regulated by the local balance between endogenous stimulators and inhibitors of this process. In pathological states such as chronic inflammation and tumor growth, there is an imbalance between endogenous stimulator and inhibitor levels, leading to an "angiogenic switch". Various inhibitors of angiogenesis, including angiostatin, endostatin and thrombospondins, are found in the body. It is uncertain why the body possesses so many inhibitors, and also how these inhibitors interact to overcome the effects of angiogenesis stimulators. This review summarizes the present knowledge about endogenous inhibitors of angiogenesis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
