Figure 1 Representative model for tumor angiogenesis induced by hepatocytes growth factor/Scater factor-Met signaling. Intrinsically hepatocytes growth factor/Scater factor (HGF/SF) activates Met receptor on the surface of host endothelial cells leading to cell proliferation and migration. Extrinsically, HGF/SF-Met signaling turns on the angiogenic switch by simultaneous upregulation of pro-angiogenic vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF) expression and down regulation of thrombospondin 1 (TSP-1) expression from the tumor cells.
