Antiangiogenesis
Angiogenesis: blood vessel+origin. The formation of blood vessels.
Angiogenesis in cancer occurs after a rogue cell divides. In order to metastasize (spread and grow) it must move to other sites and needs nourishment from blood cells for growth. The cancer cells secrete enzymes that break down tissues and eventually secrete factors or stimulate other cells to stimulate materials that allow new blood vessels to form to keep the cancer cells nourished. In some cases these blood vessels provide a path for metastasis.
