Dysregulation of CXCL9 and reduced tumor growth in Egr-1 deficient mice
BACKGROUND Early growth response-1 (Egr-1) is an immediate-early transcription factor inducible in the vasculature in response to injury, shear stress, and other stimuli. Mice lacking Egr-1 have a profound deficit in the ability to recover from femoral artery ligation, suggesting a role in neovascularization. Previous studies have shown that manipulating Egr-1 expression can have either positiv...
متن کاملAccelerated tumor growth in mice deficient in DNAM-1 receptor
Since the identification of ligands for human and mouse DNAM-1, emerging evidence has suggested that DNAM-1 plays an important role in the T cell- and natural killer (NK) cell-mediated recognition and lysis of tumor cells. However, it remains undetermined whether DNAM-1 is involved in tumor immune surveillance in vivo. We addressed this question by using DNAM-1-deficient mice. DNAM-1-deficient ...
متن کاملTumor Growth in Potassium-deficient Mice.
The growth rate of Sarcoma 180 and of a mammary adenocarcinoma in potassium deficient mice did not significantly differ from that in pair-fed control mice. The po tassium concentration of these tumors in potassium-deficient mice was the same as in the control mice, although the potassium concentration of muscle and plasma was only half of that in the controls. The in vivo equilibration of K@ in...
متن کاملLoss of clusterin limits atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice via reduced expression of Egr-1 and TNF-α.
AIM Whether clusterin/apolipoprotein J is antiatherogenic or proatherogenic is controversial. We reported that clusterin was markedly induced in media and neointima after vascular injury and that reduced clusterin expression reduced the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), which induced G1 arrest via p53 and p21. The purpose of this study was to investigate the physiological f...
متن کاملReduced angiogenesis and tumor progression in gelatinase A-deficient mice.
Matrix proteolysis is thought to play a crucial role in several stages of tumor progression, including angiogenesis, and the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. We investigated the specific role of gelatinase A (matrix metalloproteinase 2) on these events using gelatinase A-deficient mice. In these mice, tumor-induced angiogenesis was suppressed according to dorsal air sac assay. When B16-B...
