Manon Penco-Campillo, Yannick Comoglio et al. show that VEGFC decreases the proliferation and migration of medulloblastoma cells, as well as their ability to form pseudo vessels. Cells expressing high levels of VEGFC also form smaller tumors when subcutaneously injected into the flank of nude mice, thus highlighting a negative regulatory role for VEGFC on tumor growth.
