The Links Between Angiogenesis and Metastasis
Started Dec. 1, 2023
Abstract or project description
This research paper details the links between angiogenesis and metastasis in cancer. It will cover information on topics such as the hallmarks of cancer and define terms like angiogenesis in order to provide background context for the main subject matter of the paper. From there, the paper will delve into the causes of angiogenesis, compare cancerous and normal vasculature, and discuss how metastasis relates to the permeability of vasculature.
