Abstract: Vascular endothelial growth factor, hypoxia inducible factor, interleukin, angiopoietinlike protein, integrin and epithelial mesenchymal transition can provide nutritional support and favorable environment for the growth, invasion and metastasis of cancer cells. Researches about mechanisms of the angiogenesis in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma may provide more ideas and potential targets for the antiangiogenesis targeted therapy.

Key words: Esophageal neoplasms, Carcinoma, squamous cell
