摘要
Proteolytic fragments of various components of the extracellular matrix exhibit antiangiogenic activity via interaction with endothelial cell surface integrins. Kalluri and coworkers (Hamano et al., 2003; this issue of Cancer Cell) use gene-targeted mice to show a physiological role for a carboxy-terminal fragment of collagen IV in the regulation of tumor angiogenesis.
