Taming glioblastoma: targeting angiogenesis.
More than 30 years ago, Judah Folkman hypothesized that tumor angiogenesis could be a target of anticancer therapy. Some of the initial studies were actually performed in patients with glioblastomas, which had the greatest extent of tumor angiogenesis among a variety of human malignancies. The identification of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) also provided a firm foundation for the de...
متن کاملCancer immunotherapy of targeting angiogenesis.
Tumor growth and metastasis are angiogenesis-dependent. Anti-angiogenic therapy may be a useful approach to cancer therapy. This review discussed tumor angiogenesis and immunotherapy of targeting tumor angiogenesis from two main aspects: (1) active vaccination to induce effective anti-angiogenesis immunity; (2) passive immunotherapy with anti-pro-angiogenic molecules relevant antibody. Evidence...
متن کاملTargeting Angiogenesis in Childhood Sarcomas
Angiogenesis and vasculogenesis constitute two processes in the formation of new blood vessels and are essential for progression of solid tumors. Consequently, targeting angiogenesis, and to a lesser extent vasculogenesis, has become a major focus in cancer drug development. Angiogenesis inhibitors are now being tested in pediatric populations whereas inhibitors of vasculogenesis are in an earl...
متن کاملAntibody-Based targeting of angiogenesis.
Angiogenesis-the sprouting of new blood vessels from pre-existing ones-is a characteristic feature of relevant diseases such as cancer, some blinding ocular disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, and psoriasis. This article reviews recent progress in the generation of monoclonal antibodies, which recognize and target new blood vessels in vivo, while sparing mature vessels and healthy tissues. The use...
متن کاملTargeting Angiogenesis for Controlling Neuroblastoma
Neuroblastoma, a progressive solid tumor in childhood, continues to be a clinical challenge. It is highly vascular, heterogeneous, and extracranial tumor that originates from neural crest. Angiogenesis, genetic abnormalities, and oncogene amplification are mainly responsible for malignant phenotype of this tumor. Survivability of malignant neuroblastoma patients remains poor despite the use of ...
