Nerve growth factor suppresses prostate tumor growth.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) facilitates reinnervation of perivascular nerves that regulate vascular tone and blood flow. This study investigated whether NGF prevents tumor growth by promoting neuronal regulation of tumor blood flow. The growth rate of DU145 prostate carcinoma cells subcutaneously implanted into nude mice was significantly inhibited by subcutaneous NGF administration. Significant ...
متن کاملNerve growth factor in human semen: Effect of nerve growth factor on the normozoospermic men during cryopreservation process
Objective(s):Althoughroutinely applied in assisted reproductive technology, human sperm cryopreservation is not a completely successful procedure. Adverse effects of cryopreservation on the fertilization capacity, motility, morphology, and viability of spermatozoa have been proven; cryopreservation has also shown a role in sperm DNA fragmentation and infertility. The post-thaw survival of sperm...
متن کاملCSR1 suppresses tumor growth and metastasis of prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer is frequent among men over 45 years of age, but it generally only becomes lethal with metastasis. In this study, we identified a gene called cellular stress response 1 (CSR1) that was frequently down-regulated and methylated in prostate cancer samples. Survival analysis indicated that methylation of the CSR1 promoter, and to a lesser extent down-regulation of CSR1 protein expres...
متن کاملThe nerve growth factor/tumor necrosis factor receptor family.
Receptors in the nerve growth factor/tumor necrosis factor receptor family are characterized by the presence of cysteine-rich motifs of approximately 40 amino acids in the extracellular domain. The ligands are type II transmembrane proteins with beta-strands that form a jelly-roll beta-sandwich. The receptors recognize soluble or cell-surface-bound ligands and mediate diverse cellular responses...
متن کاملInhibition of tissue factor signaling suppresses tumor growth.
Coagulation activation by tissue factor (TF) is implicated in cancer progression, cancer-associated thrombosis and metastasis. The role of direct TF signaling pathways in cancer, however, remains incompletely understood. Here we address how TF contributes to primary tumor growth by using a unique pair of isotype-matched antibodies that inhibit either coagulation (monoclonal antibody [Mab]-5G9) ...
