The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Axis of evil: molecular mechanisms of cancer metastasis (2003, background): “In a separate series of experiments, Mary Hendrix and co-workers described that tumor cells can even have endothelial cell-like functions and form channels that allow fluid flow (Maniotis et al., 1999; Folberg et al., 2000) (Figure 1c).”
Specialization of tumour vasculature (2002, neutral): “A third type of tumour 'vessel' has been proposed to consist of ECM channels surrounded by tumour cell”
The therapeutic promise of the cancer stem cell concept. (2010, background): “Indeed, vasculogenic mimicry has been proposed to provide a potential target for therapeutic intervention (59).”
Vascular and haematopoietic stem cells: novel targets for anti-angiogenesis therapy? (2002, background): “gov/cancerinfo/pdq/treatment/melanoma/healthprofessional/">melanoma cells, can also act like endothelial cells and form functional avascular blood conduit”
