Specific Protein Needed for Blood Vessel FormationNew research explains how cells regulate their bonds during the development of new blood vessels. For the first time, the role of the protein Raf-1 in determining the strength of the bond between cells has been shown. If Raf-1 is not present, the cells cannot stick together and the formation of new blood vessels is inhibited. This discovery may one day lead to new approaches to cancer treatment.Read more: http://www.laboratoryequipment.com/news-Specific-Protein-Needed-for-Blood-Vessel-Formation-011712.aspx
