Autocrine VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 signaling promotes survival in human glioblastoma models in vitro and in vivo
BACKGROUND Although the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGF receptor (VEGFR) system has become a prime target for antiangiogenic treatment, its biological role in glioblastoma beyond angiogenesis has remained controversial. METHODS Using neutralizing antibodies to VEGF or placental growth factor (PlGF) or the tyrosine kinase inhibitor, cediranib, or lentiviral gene silencing, we de...
متن کاملAutocrine Glutamate Signaling Promotes Glioma Cell
Malignant gliomas have been shown to release glutamate, which kills surrounding brain cells, creating room for tumor expansion. This glutamate release occurs primarily via system xC , a Na-independent cystine-glutamate exchanger. We show here, in addition, that the released glutamate acts as an essential autocrine/paracrine signal that promotes cell invasion. Specifically, chemotactic invasion ...

Malignant gliomas have been shown to release glutamate, which kills surrounding brain cells, creating room for tumor expansion. This glutamate release occurs primarily via system xC, a Na+-independent cystine-glutamate exchanger. We show here, in addition, that the released glutamate acts as an essential autocrine/paracrine signal that promotes cell invasion. Specifically, chemotactic invasion ...
متن کاملAutocrine PDGFR signaling promotes mammary cancer metastasis.
Metastasis is the major cause of cancer morbidity, but strategies for direct interference with invasion processes are lacking. Dedifferentiated, late-stage tumor cells secrete multiple factors that represent attractive targets for therapeutic intervention. Here we show that metastatic potential of oncogenic mammary epithelial cells requires an autocrine PDGF/PDGFR loop, which is established as ...
متن کاملActive CREB1 Promotes a Malignant TGFb2 Autocrine Loop in Glioblastoma
In advanced cancer, including glioblastoma, the TGFβ pathway acts as an oncogenic factor. Some tumors exhibit aberrantly high TGFβ activity, and the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon are not well understood. We have observed that TGFβ can induce TGFβ2, generating an autocrine loop leading to aberrantly high levels of TGFβ2. We identifi ed cAMP-responsive element–binding protein 1 (CREB1) as...
