Correct! Decreased tumour growth due to impaired angiogenesis and reduced blood supply
Rationale: VEGF is a key factor in promoting angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels). Inhibiting VEGF would decrease the tumour’s ability to develop new blood vessels, reducing its nutrient supply and growth potential.
A tumour is found to have high levels of glucose uptake and lactic acid production, even in the presence of sufficient oxygen. This observation is most consistent with which hallmark of cancer, and why?
