5. Figure 4
Two-hit hypothesis with reference to tumor angiogenesis. In neurofibromas, the first genetic hit is increased ras activation, so the benign tumors are already angiogenic. The second hit is loss of p53, which may result in only a slight increase in angiogenesis. In contrast, in melanoma progression, the first hit is loss of p16, which may not result in increased angiogenesis, but ras activation as a second hit will result in upregulation of angiogenesis.
