Angiogenic factor-driven inflammation promotes extravasation of human proangiogenic monocytes to tumours

Circulating myeloid cells can leave the vasculature to infiltrate tumours and are thought to contribute to tumour angiogenesis. Here the authors live image monocytes that migrate to xenograft tumours and map an extravasation cascade of human proangiogenic monocytes into the tumour.
