VEGFA and cancer: TAMs that may represent up to 50% of the tumor mass are mainly M2-like in invasive cancers and support virtually all hallmarks of cancer by generating numerous growth factors, cytokines and ECM-remodeling molecules such as CCL2, CXCL12, CXCR4, TGFβ, VEGF, PDGF, COX-2 and metalloproteinases to regulate tumor growth, migration as well as angiogenesis [8–11].
