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 nerve growth factor β (β-NGF), stem cell factor (SCF), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α). 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, the profiling of these factors is critical to understanding angiogenesis. Signosis' Angiogenesis ELISA Strip II can simultaneously profile eight angiogenesis cytokines. Cytokine levels in different samples can be compared through data analysis.
