Summary

Research on angiogenesis in pre-invasive cancer is emerging. Measuring microvessel density (MVD) in pre-neoplastic lesions may predict tumor invasion, but requires further study.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Vascular Biology

Background:

  • Angiogenesis research has primarily focused on invasive cancers.
  • Intra-tumoural microvessel density (MVD) is an established prognostic marker.
  • Natural and pharmacological angiogenesis inhibitors are being developed.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review angiogenesis in pre-invasive and early neoplastic diseases.
  • To explore the potential of MVD as a prognostic marker in pre-neoplastic lesions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing clinical and experimental studies, primarily using animal models.
  • Analysis of research on angiogenesis-related findings in pre-invasive disease.

Main Results:

  • Angiogenesis studies in pre-neoplastic lesions are in early stages.
  • Indirect evidence suggests MVD's potential role in predicting tumor invasion.
  • Prognostic value of MVD in pre-neoplastic disease needs further evaluation.

Conclusions:

  • Measuring angiogenic factors may help identify pre-malignant conditions at risk of invasion.
  • Anti-angiogenesis therapy shows promise in animal models for preventing malignant transformation.
  • Early detection and intervention in pre-malignant lesions represent a future goal for cancer prevention.
