It also induces angiogenesis after tissue injury.17 An increase in VEGFA similarly stimulates angiogenesis after tissue damage to promote reoxygenation for repair.18 Increases in these factors may also create a protumorigenic environment, enhancing adhesion of disseminated cancer cells, resulting in peritoneal metastasis and are poor prognosis markers in cancer.19,20. Here, VEGFA is linked to cancer.
