The formation of new vessels (angiogenesis) is essential for primary tumour growth and metastasis and is induced by several angiogenic factors, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The microvascular density (MVD) in tumours was assessed and the expression of VEGF and its receptors VE

Raised plasma VEGF is found in some cancers but levels of its receptor soluble Flt-1 (sFlt-1) are unreported. Hypothesising increased levels to be present in haematological cancers, we measured both by ELISA in 22 patients with haematological cancer, 22 with breast cancer, and in age-and sex-matched
