Alpha V Beta Inhibitor Definition

A group of angiogenesis inhibitors that act by blocking the action of alpha(v)beta integrins. An alpha(v) beta integrin inhibitor blocks the activity of an endothelial cell-surface expressed alpha(v)integrin, thereby inhibiting endothelial cell-cell interactions, endothelial cell-matrix interactions, and angiogenesis.
