AT1-R increases angiogenesis via the elevation of angiogenic factors expression (vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and matrix metallopeptidases (MMPs)). The local activation of the RAS pathway increases the expression of ICAM, VCAM and MMPs genes that are involved in the late steps of the metastasis process. There is some evidence that RAS components are expressed in metastatic tumors and RASIs (renin-angiotensin system inhibitors) could be used to reduce cancer metastasis by affecting the mechanisms involved in several di
