A glycolytic mechanism regulating an angiogenic switch in prostate cancer.
The generation of an "angiogenic switch" is essential for tumor growth, yet its regulation is poorly understood. In this investigation, we explored the linkage between metastasis and angiogenesis through CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling. We found that CXCR4 regulates the expression and secretion of the glycolytic enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1). Overexpression of PGK1 reduced the secretion of vas...
متن کاملChronopharmacologic cancer treatment with an angiogenic vessel-targeted liposomal drug.
Antineovascular therapy (ANET), which eradicates angiogenic endothelial cells by specifically delivered anticancer drugs to tumor cells to obtain complete cutoff of blood supply, is an effective modality for cancer treatment. Since the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in hypoxic tumor cells is known to fluctuate in a circadian oscillation, we investigated the chronopharma...
متن کاملAngiogenic factors and bladder cancer.
Angiogenesis is required for the growth as well as expansion of a solid tumor. It has been reported that tumor angiogenesis may be triggered after an increase in the level of angiogenic factors and a concomitant decrease in the level of angiogenic inhibitors. Of all potential pro-angiogenic mediators of bladder cancer, VEGF and bFGF appear to be most relevant in terms of physiology. To date, it...
متن کاملAngiogenic growth factors in preinvasive breast disease.
Recently, we showed that preinvasive breast pathologies, such as usual hyperplasia, atypical hyperplasia, and carcinoma in situ, have an increased vascularity when compared with normal breast tissue (S. C. Heffelfinger et al., Clinical Cancer Res., 2: 1873-1878, 1996). To understand the mechanism of this increased vascularity, we examined by immunohistochemistry each of these pathological lesio...
