Osteocalcin is angiogenic in vivo
TL;DR: Investigation of the capacity of OC to promote vasoproliferation in chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane showed that OC stimulates angiogenesis and that the response is similar to that obtained with FGF‐2, a well‐known angiogenic cytokine.

Inhibition of Fibroblast Growth Factor-2-induced Vascular Tumor Formation by the Acyclic Nucleoside Phosphonate Cidofovir
TL;DR: In conclusion, cidofovir appears to inhibit the growth of endothelium-derived tumors via induction of apoptosis without exerting a direct antiangiogenic activity.
In vivo angiogenic activity of neuroblastoma correlates with MYCN oncogene overexpression
Domenico Ribatti,Lizzia Raffaghello,Fabio Pastorino,Beatrice Nico,Chiara Brignole,Angelo Vacca,Mirco Ponzoni +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that MYCN amplification parallels angiogenesis in NB, and the angiogenic response, evaluated both macroscopically and microscopically, was significantly higher in the MYCN‐amplified specimens compared to the nonamplify ones.
Rhu-Epo down-regulates pro-tumorigenic activity of cancer-associated fibroblasts in multiple myeloma

TL;DR: The data suggest that rHu-Epo down-regulates CAFs pro-tumorigenic activity, and results are not suggestive for a pro-angiogenic activity of rHuEpo on CAFs.
The development of the vascular system: a historical overview
TL;DR: This historical introduction tries to retrace the early steps of scientific speculation on vascular development and to recapitulate the principal paths leading to the present appreciation of blood vessel formation.
