The extent of angiogenesis in the bone marrow has been correlated with disease burden, prognosis and treatment outcome. Reciprocal positive and negative interactions between tumor cells and bone marrow stromal cells, namely hematopoietic stem cells, fibroblasts, osteoblasts/osteoclasts, endothelial cells, endothelial progenitor cells, T cells, macrophages and mast cells, mediated by an array of cytokines, receptors and adhesion molecules, modulate the angiogenic response in hematological tumors. More recently, it has been emphasized the pro-angiogenic role of the so called “vascular niche”, indicating a site rich in blood vessels where endothelial cells and mural cells such as pericytes and smooth muscle cells create a microenvironment that affects the behavior of several stem and progenitor cells, in hematological malignancies.Cancer researchOncology  HematologyLife sciencesCancer Researchhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B11001Oncologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160Hematologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H3307XLife Sciences, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L00004Cancer research.Oncology  .Hematology.Life sciences.Cancer Research.Oncology.Hematology.Life Sciences, general.570599.017599/.017Ribatti Domenicoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut793065European Union.BOOK9910298314303321Angiogenesis and Anti-Angiogenesis in Hematological Malignancies2502661UNINA
