Pericyte FAK negatively regulates Gas6/Axl signalling to suppress tumour angiogenesis and tumour growth

Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is required for tumour angiogenesis and growth. Here, the authors show that deletion of pericyte FAK upregulates Gas6-Axl mediated Cyr61 production, which increases endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis, while elevating tissue factor production to enhance tumour...
