Anti-Tumor Effect of a Novel Soluble Recombinant Human Endostatin: Administered as a Single Agent or in Combination with Chemotherapy Agents in Mouse Tumor Models
BACKGROUND Angiogenesis has become an attractive target in cancer treatment. Endostatin is one of the potent anti-angiogenesis agents. Its recombinant form expressed in the yeast system is currently under clinical trials. Endostatin suppresses tumor formation through the inhibition of blood vessel growth. It is anticipated that combined therapy using endostatin and cytotoxic compounds may exert...
متن کاملAnti-tumor therapy with macroencapsulated endostatin producer cells
BACKGROUND Theracyte is a polytetrafluoroethylene membrane macroencapsulation system designed to induce neovascularization at the tissue interface, protecting the cells from host's immune rejection, thereby circumventing the problem of limited half-life and variation in circulating levels. Endostatin is a potent inhibitor of angiogenesis and tumor growth. Continuous delivery of endostatin impro...
متن کاملRole of Cyclooxygenase-2 on Intermittent Hypoxia-Induced Lung Tumor Malignancy in a Mouse Model of Sleep Apnea
An adverse role for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in cancer epidemiology and outcomes has recently emerged from clinical and animal studies. In animals, intermittent hypoxia (IH) mimicking OSA promotes tumor malignancy both directly and via host immune alterations. We hypothesized that IH could potentiate cancer aggressiveness through activation of the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) pathway and the c...
متن کاملEvaluation of a 99mTc-tricine Vascular Disrupting Agent as an In-vivo Imaging in 4T1 Mouse Breast Tumor Model
Colchicine as a vascular disrupting agent creates microtubule destabilization whichinduces vessel blockage and consequently cell death. Accordingly, colchicines and itsanalogues radiolabeled with 99mTc may have potential for visualization of tumor. In this work,deacetylcolchicine a colchicine analogue was labeled with 99mTc via tricine as a coligandand characterized for its tumor targeting prop...
متن کاملIntermittent hypoxia increases kidney tumor vascularization in a murine model of sleep apnea
We investigate the effects of intermittent hypoxia (IH), a characteristic feature of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), on renal cancer progression in an animal and cell model. An in vivo mouse model (Balb/c, n = 50) of kidney cancer was used to assess the effect of IH on tumor growth, metastatic capacity, angiogenesis and tumor immune response. An in vitro model tested the effect of IH on RENCA ce...
