Researchers from the Flanders Institute for Biotechnology in Belgium say they have found a way to repair dysfunctional blood vessels which allow cancer cells to escape from the blood stream and reach other organs, and which play a vital role in cancer metastasis.
In a study published in Cancer Cell, researchers describe how they manipulated the blood vessel cells’ sugar metabolism to create a healthy blood vessel network, prevent the spread of cancer cells, and deliver chemotherapy drugs more efficiently to the tumor.
