Word of the Day
Angiogenesis
Angiogenesis refers to the formation of new blood vessels. In the context of lung cancer, angiogenesis plays a crucial role in tumor growth and spread. Cancer cells release signals that promote the growth of new blood vessels to supply oxygen and nutrients to the tumor. Targeting angiogenesis is a therapeutic strategy used in the treatment of lung cancer to inhibit the formation of new blood vessels and limit tumor growth.
