EPHB4 and neoplasm: Similarly, EphB4 conditional deletion on the vasculature using EphB4fl/flTie2-Cre-ERT mice failed to retard accelerated tumor growth observed with EphB4 cancer cell knockdown (Fig. 4c and Supplementary Fig. 11c), suggesting that stromal EphB4, particularly on the collagen I-expressing cells and vascular endothelial cells, is not responsible for driving the tumor growth acceleration in the absence of EphB4 on the cancer cells.
