描述 | Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors (VEGFs) and their receptors (VEGF-Rs) are important regulators for angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. VEGFs and VEGF-Rs are not only expressed on endothelial cells but also on various subtypes of solid tumors and leukemias contributing to the growth of the malignant cells[2]. VEGF rapidly induced tyrosine phosphorylation of type 1 and type 2 VEGF receptors. Physical association between VEGF-receptor 2 (VEGF-R2) and insulin receptor substrate (IRS-1) and phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase (PI3K) was induced by VEGF, which augmented PI3K activity in VEGF-R2 immunoprecipitates[3]. In a human melanoma xenograft mouse model, blockade of both VEGF-R2 and Tie-2 pathways or the VEGF receptor pathway alone resulted in a significant inhibition of tumor growth and tumor angiogenesis (92.2 % and 74.4 %)[4]. (Z)-Guggulsterone inhibits the growth of human prostate cancer cells by causing apoptosis. Z-guggulsterone inhibits angiogenesis by suppressing the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-VEGF-R2–Akt signaling axis. In HUVEC, Z-guggulsterone (10, 20 μM; 24 or 48 hours) induces a reduction in the level of VEGF-R2 protein. In tumor volume and wet tumor weight, Z-guggulsterone (p.o.; 1 mg; 5 times/week) causes a statistically significant reduction[5]. |
