Fasudil inhibits prostate cancer-induced angiogenesis in vitro.
Inhibition of angiogenesis is an important therapeutic strategy for advanced stage prostate cancer (PCa). RhoA/Rho-associated protein kinases (ROCK) are key regulators of the cytoskeleton and have been implicated in PCa angiogenesis. We investigated the anti-angiogenic effects of fasudil, a ROCK inhibitor, on PCa-induced angiogenesis in vitro. Proliferation of PCa-conditioned human umbilical ve...
متن کاملEllagitannin-rich pomegranate extract inhibits angiogenesis in prostate cancer in vitro and in vivo.
Angiogenesis is critical to tumor growth and is stimulated by tissue hypoxia due to poor oxygen delivery. In turn, cellular hypoxia leads to angiogenesis via the induction of hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) at a cellular level. Pomegranate juice and extracts, which are rich sources of ellagitannins, have been shown to have chemopreventi...
متن کاملa-Chaconine Inhibits Angiogenesis in Vitro
metabolites found in many plants, such as potatoes. Glycoalkaloids are produced in leaves, roots, tubers and sprouts of the potato plant, and are involved in host plant resistance to bacteria, fungi, viruses, and insects. Several reports have showed that glycoalkaloids suppress the growth of cancer cells in human skin, liver, prostate, breast and colon. aChaconine, a trisaccharide glycoalkaloid...
متن کاملProstate Cancer and New Insights in Angiogenesis
Angiogenesis is considered one of the hallmarks of tumor initiation and progression therefore it is also the widely accepted therapeutic target. It has been shown that angiogenesis blockers prolong patient’s survival for several months (1). In order to progress, cancer cells acquire several distinct morphological alterations increasing their capacity to proliferate and independently sustain gro...
متن کاملmiR-195 inhibits cell proliferation and angiogenesis in human prostate cancer by downregulating PRR11 expression
hsa-miR-195-5p (miR-195) has been proven to be a critical regulator in the progression of prostate cancer (PCa). To identify additional targets and molecular functions of miR-195, we overexpressed miR-195 by transient oligonucleotide transfection in DU145 and LNCaP cells and examined the effects. RNA-based microarray and dual-luciferase assays were carried out to identify novel targets of miR-1...
