STEM CELL-DERIVED ENDOTHELIAL CELLS MODIFIED TO DISRUPT TUMOR ANGIOGENESIS

摘要

The present invention provides cloned, genetically modified, endothelial cells, and the stem cells from which they are derived, which are produced by somatic cell nuclear transfer. The invention further provide novel therapeutic methods in which such cells are administered to a patient with tumors to inhibit and/or disrupt angiogenesis of the tumors, thereby inhibiting tumor growth and killing tumor cells.
