Angiogenesis provides the crucial link between the avascular and vascular states and is a key event for sustained tumor growth and cancer progression. Angiogenesis as a biological switch process is governed by numerous pro- and anti-angiogenic factors, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (FGFb), and interleukin 6 (IL-6). The mechanism of action of each of these factors is different, as are their origin and the stimuli for their production. The angiogenic switch refers to the balance between pro- and anti- angiogenic factors. Therefore, profiling these factors is critical to understanding angiogenesis. Signosis' Rat Angiogenesis ELISA Strip can simultaneously profile eight angiogenesis cytokines. The expression levels of each cytokine can be quantitatively compared between different samples.
