| 1 | Angiogenesis and neuronal remodeling after ischemic stroke显示文摘Increased microvessel density in the peri-infarct region has been reported and has been correlated with longer survival times in ischemic stroke patients and has improved outcomes in ischemic animal models.This raises the possibility that enhancement of angiogenesis is one of the strategies to facilitate functional recovery after ischemic stroke.Blood vessels and neuronal cells communicate with each other using various mediators and contribute to the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia as a unit.In this mini-review,we discuss how angiogenesis might couple with axonal outgrowth/neurogenesis and work for functional recovery after cerebral ischemia.Angiogenesis occurs within 4 to 7 days after cerebral ischemia in the border of the ischemic core and periphery.Post-ischemic angiogenesis may contribute to neuronal remodeling in at least two ways and is thought to contribute to functional recovery.First,new blood vessels that are formed after ischemia are thought to have a role in the guidance of sprouting axons by vascular endothelial growth factor and laminin/β1-integrin signaling.Second,blood vessels are thought to enhance neurogenesis in three stages:1)Blood vessels enhance proliferation of neural stem/progenitor cells by expression of several extracellular signals,2)microvessels support the migration of neural stem/progenitor cells toward the peri-infarct region by supplying oxygen,nutrients,and soluble factors as well as serving as a scaffold for migration,and 3)oxygenation induced by angiogenesis in the ischemic core is thought to facilitate the differentiation of migrated neural stem/progenitor cells into mature neurons.Thus,the regions of angiogenesis and surrounding tissue may be coupled,representing novel treatment targets. | Masahiro Hatakeyama Itaru Ninomiya Masato Kanazawa | 2020 | Neural Regeneration Research2020,15,1: | 63 |
| 2 | Recurrence or metastasis of HCC:predictors,early detection and experimental antiangiogenic therapy显示文摘AIM To investigate the predictors forrecurrence or metastasis of HCC,and toevaluate the effect of antiangiogenic therapy onthe growth of transplantable human HCC in nudemice.METHODS RT-PCR was used to measure theexpression of matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in 56 pairs of nontumorous liver andtumor samples.Sixty blood samples from humanHCC were examined by nested RT-PCR to find outAFP mRNA.Recombinant human endostatin andpolyclonal antibody against VEGF wereadministered to treat human HCC transplanted innude mice.RESULTS Thirty of 56 HCC samples showedstronger expression of MMP-9 in tumoroustissues than in nontumorous tissues.Fifteen ofthe 26 patients with relative expression level ofMMP-9 more than 0.34 developed tumorrecurrence or metastasis,whereas only 7 of 30patients with relative expression level less than0.34 developed tumor recurrence(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in therelative expression level of VEGF betweenpatients with postoperative recurrence ormetastasis and those without recurrence.AFPmRNA was detectable in 53.3% of patients withHCC.The sensitivity and specificity of AFPmRNA as a marker to detect hematogenousdissemination of HCC cells was 81.8% and84.4%,respectively.Recombinant human endostatin and polyclonal antibody against VEGFinhibited the growth of transplantable HCC innude mice by 52.2% and 45.7%,respectively.CONCLUSION MMP-9 expression in HCCcorrelates with the postoperative recurrence ormetastasis of HCC.Patients with high level ofMMP-9 expression in HCC are susceptible tometastasis.AFP mRNA could serve as anindicator of hematogenous spreading of HCCcells in circulation and a predictor of recurrenceor metastasis of HCC.Antiangiogenesis may bean adjuvant therapy for HCC. | Jiang YF Yang ZH Hu JQ | 2000 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2000,6,1: | 57 |
| 3 | Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and its role in oncogenesis of human gastric carcinoma显示文摘AIM To establish the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the oncogenesisof human gastric carcinoma more directly.METHODS The expression of VEGF and its receptor kinase-domain insert containing receptor (KDR) in human gastric cancer tissue were observed by immunohistochemical staining. VEGF levels were manipulated in human gastric cancer cell using eukaryotic expression constructs designed to express the complete VEGF165 complimentary DNA in either the sense or antisense orientation. The biological changes of the cells were observed in which VEGF was up-regulated or downregulated.RESULTS VEGF-positive rate was 50%, and VEGF was mainly localized in the cytoplasm and membrane of the tumor cells, while KDR was mainly located in the membrane of vascular endothelial cells in gastric cancer tissues and peri-cancerous tissue. In 2 cases of 50 specimens, the gastric cancer cells expressed KDR,localized in both the cytoplasm and membrane.Introduction of VEGF165 antisense into human gastric cancer cells ( SGC-7901, immunofluorescence intensity,31.6%)) resulted in a significant reduction in VEGFspecific messenger RNA and total and cell surface VEGF protein ( immunofluorescence intensity, 8.9%)(P<0.05). Conversely, stable integration of VEGF165 in the sense orientation resulted in an increase in cellular and cell surface VEGF (immunofluorescence intensity,75.4%) (P<0.05). Lowered VEGF levels were associated with a marked decrease in the growth of nude mouse xenografted tumor (at 33 days postimplantation, tomor volume: 345.40 ± 136.31 mm3) (P<0.05 vs control SGC7901 group: 1534.40 ± 362.88 mm3), whereas up-regulation of VEGF resulted in increased xenografted tumor size (at 33 days postimplantation, tomor volume: 2350.50 ± 637.70mm3) (P<0.05 vs control SGC-7901 group).CONCLUSION This study provides direct evidence that VEGF plays an important role in the oncogenesis of human gastric cancer. | Du-Hu Liu Xue-Yong Zhang Dai-Ming Fan Yu-Xin Huang Jin-Shan Zhang Wei-Quan Huang Yuan-Qiang Zhang Qing-Sheng Huang Wen-Yu Ma Yu-Bo Chai Ming Jin Institute of Digestive Disease,Xijing Hospital,~2 Department of Gastroenterology,Tangdu Hospital,~3Department of Histology and Embryology,~4 Department of Microbiology,~5 Department of Biochemistry,Fourth Military Medical University,Xi’an 710033,Shaanxi Province,China | 2001 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2001,7,4: | 37 |

| 5 | Metastatic human hepatocellular carcinoma models in nude mice and cell line with metastatic potential显示文摘Metastatic human HCC model is needed for the studies on mechanism and intervention of metastatic recurrence. By using orthotopic implantation of histologically intact tissues of 30 surgical specimens, a patient like metastatic model of human HCC in nude mice (LCI-D20)and a Iow metastatic model of human HCC in nude mice LCI-D35 ) have been established. All mice with transplanted LCI-D20 tumors exhibited extremely high metastatic ability including spontaneous metastasis to liver, lungs, lymph nodes and peritoneal seeding.Remarkable difference was also found in expression of some of the invasiveness related genes and growth factors between the LCI-D20 and LCI-D35 tumors. PAI-Iincreased gradually following tumor progression in LCID20 model, and correlated with tumor size and AFP level,Phasic expression of tissue intercellular adhesion molecule-I in this model was also observed. Using corneal micropocket model, it was demonstrated that the vascular response induced by LCI-D20 tumor was stronger than that induced by LCI-D35 tumor. Similar report on metastatic human HCC model in nude mice and human HCC cell line with metastatic potential was rarely found in the literature. This LCI-D20 model has been widely used for the studies on intervention of metastasis, including antiangiogenesis, antisense approach, metalloproteinase inhibitor, differentiation inducer, etc. It is concluded that the establishment of metastatic human HCC model in nude mice and human HCC cell line with metastatic potential will provide important models for the in vivo and in vitro study of HCC invasiveness, angiogenesis as well as intervention of HCC recurrence. | Zhao-You Tang Fan-Xian Sun Jian Tian Sheng-Long Ye Yin-Kun Liu Kang-Da Liu Qiong Xue Jie Chen Jing-Lin Xia Lun-Xiu Qin Hui-Chuan Sun Lu Wang Jian Zhou Yan Li Zeng-Chen Ma Xin-Da Zhou Zhi-Quan Wu Zhi-Ying Lin Bing-Hui Yang Liver Cancer Institute of Fudan University and Zhongshan Hospital,Shanghai 200032,China | 2001 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2001,7,5: | 34 |
| 6 | Surgical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma and related basic research with special reference to recurrence and metastasis显示文摘To summarize the progress of surgical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and related basic research at the Liver Cancer Institute of Shanghai Medical University in the recent years, with special reference to recurrence and metastasis Methods Published and unpublished update clinical and experimental data in the above mentioned areas are summarized Results Surgical resection has played an important role in improving prognosis of HCC, the 5 year survival were 63 4% for small HCC resection (n=806), 39 6% for large HCC resection (n=1061), 64 7% for cytoreduction (using hepatic artery cannulation and ligation) and sequential resection of initially unresectable HCC (n=93), 56 0% for cytoreduction using transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and followed by resection (n=65), and 22 4% for hepatic resection with removal of tumor thrombi in portal vein (n=103) Unfortunately, the 5 year recurrent rate after curative resection of HCC was up to 61 5%, which was mainly a result of intrahepatic “metastasis” and multicentric origin of HCC Clinically, re resection of subclinical recurrence yielded 56% of 5 year survival (n=202); prevention of recurrence by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE)+Interferon, or LAK/IL 2 therapy have decreased 3 year recurrent rate from 33% to 11%-18% In experimental aspect, metastatic human HCC model in nude mice (LCI D20) and HCC cell line with metastatic potential (MHCC97) have been established; studies on HCC invasiveness in the molecular level revealed similar results that reported in other solid cancers, and small HCC showed slightly better biological characteristics as compared with large HCC; microvessel density (MVD) that reflecting angiogenesis adversely correlated with 5 year survival of small HCC; experimental interventions using antisense H ras, bispecific antibody, BB94, as well as anti angiogenic agents (TNP470, suramin, CAI, heparin, antisense VEGF, etc ) have been demonstrated to inhibit tumor growth and lung metastasis in nude mice model Conclusions Recurrence and metastasis are the major obstacle to further improve prognosis of HCC, studies should be conducted both in clinical and experimental aspects, “HCC invasiveness” will be the major target to be studied, particularly in the molecular level, and anti angiogenesis will be one of the important | 汤钊猷 周信达 林芷英 杨秉辉 马曾辰 叶胜龙 吴志全 樊嘉 刘银坤 刘康达 钦伦秀 田健 孙惠川 贺斌 夏景林 邱双健 周俭 | 1999 | Chinese Medical Journal1999,,10: | 31 |
| 7 | Over-expression of VEGF in Marrow Stromal Cells Promotes Angiogenesis in Rats with Cerebral Infarction via the Synergistic Effects of VEGF and Ang-2显示文摘This study explored whether the transplantation of modified marrow stromal cells (MSCs) has angiogenic effects in a left middle cerebral artery occlusion infarction/reperfusion (MCAO I/R) rat model and preliminarily examined the mechanism of angiogenesis following cerebral infarction.MSCs were isolated by using a direct adherent method and cultured.Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was transfected into MSCs by employing the liposome transfection.The transfection efficiency was measured by the optical density method.The protein expression of VEGF gene before and after transfection was measured by Western blotting.SD rat model of transient occlusion of the left middle cerebral artery was established by using an approach of intra-luminal occlusion.Tetrazolium (TTC) and HE staining were performed to observe the cerebral infarction.ELISAs were used to measure the levels of VEGF in the rat cerebral tissues.The expression patterns of angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2) and CD34 in cells surrounding the area of infarction were immunohistochemistrically oserved.Ang-2 protein expression in the tissue surrounding the area of infarction was measured by Western blotting.VEGF expression in the MSCs increased after transfection at a rate of approximately 28%±3.4%.ELISA showed that the expression of VEGF in the cerebral tissue was significantly increased after induction of infarction,peaking on the 4th day and decreasing to the levels of the sham surgery group (normal) within 7 to 10 days.The VEGF level was significantly higher at each time point in the VEGF-MSC and MSC groups compared to the model group.Moreover,the VEGF level was higher in the VEGF-MSC group than in the MSC group and stayed relatively high until the 10th day.The immunohistochemical results showed that 10 days after the infarction,the number of Ang-2 and CD34-expressing cells in the area surrounding the infarction was significantly higher in the VEGF-MSC group and the MSC group compared to the model group.Moreover,the VEGF level was higher in the VEGF-MSC group than the MSC group.A similar trend in Ang-2 protein expression was revealed by Western blotting.In the MCAO rat model transfected with modified MSCs over-expressing VEGF,compared to the MSC transplantation group,the concentration of VEGF was significantly increased in the brain tissue after cerebral infarction.In addition,the level of Ang-2 was up-regulated,with angiogenesis promoted,the blood supply to the areas surrounding the cerebral infarction increased,and neurological function improved.We are led to speculate that the synergistic effects of VEGF and Ang-2 may be responsible for the angiogenesis following cerebral infarction. | 赖天宝 李嫚 郑丽芳 宋艳玲 徐小丽 郭远瑾 张远 张宗胜 梅元武 | 2012 | Journal of Huazhong University of Science and Technology(Medical Sciences)2012,32,5: | 26 |
| 8 | Role of bevacizumab in colorectal cancer growth and its adverse effects:A review显示文摘Angiogenesis affects both wound healing and malignant cell growth through nutrients and oxygen.Vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) is the most important element involved in this complex process.Inhibition of VEGF influences angiogenesis and may restrict tumor growth and metastatic ability.Modern antiangiogenic therapy is based on this theory.Bevacizumab is a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody(immunoglobulin G1) which binds with VEGF-A forming a large molecule.It can not be bound with VEGF tyrosine kinase receptors preventing VEGF-A incorporation;thus its activity is inhibited inducing blockage of VEGFmediated angiogenesis.Bevacizumab,in combination with chemotherapy or other novel targeted therapeutic agents,is currently used more frequently in clinical practice,mainly for managing advanced colorectal cancer.It is also used for managing other malignancies,such as breast cancer,pancreatic cancer,prostate cancer,non small-cell lung cancer,metastatic renal carcinoma and ovarian tumors.Although it is generally considered a safe treatment,there are reports of some rare side effects which should be taken into account.Recent experiments in rats and mice show promising results with a wider therapeutic range. | Efstathios T Pavlidis Theodoros E Pavlidis | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,31: | 24 |
| 9 | Angiogenesis and liver fibrosis显示文摘Recent data indicate that hepatic angiogenesis, regardless of the etiology, takes place in chronic liver diseases(CLDs) that are characterized by inflammat ion and progre s s ive f ibros is. B e c aus e ant iangiogenic therapy has been found to be efficient in the prevention of fibrosis in experimental models of CLDs, it is suggested that blocking angiogenesis could be a promising therapeutic option in patients with advanced fibrosis. Consequently, efforts are being directed to revealing the mechanisms involved in angiogenesis during the progression of liver fibrosis. Literature evidences indicate that hepatic angiogenesis and fibrosis are closely related in both clinical andexperimental conditions. Hypoxia is a major inducer of angiogenesis together with inflammation and hepatic stellate cells. These profibrogenic cells stand at the intersection between inflammation, angiogenesis and fibrosis and play also a pivotal role in angiogenesis. This review mainly focuses to give a clear view on the relevant features that communicate angiogenesis with progression of fibrosis in CLDs towards the-end point of cirrhosis that may be translated into future therapies. The pathogenesis of hepatic angiogenesis associated with portal hypertension, viral hepatitis, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and alcoholic liver disease are also discussed to emphasize the various mechanisms involved in angiogenesis during liver fibrogenesis. | Gulsum Ozlem Elpek | 2015 | World Journal of Hepatology2015,7,3: | 24 |
| 10 | Constraint-induced movement therapy enhances angiogenesis and neurogenesis after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion显示文摘Constraint-induced movement therapy after cerebral ischemia stimulates axonal growth by decreasing expression levels of Nogo-A,RhoA,and Rho-associated kinase(ROCK)in the ischemic boundary zone.However,it remains unclear if there are any associations between the Nogo-A/RhoA/ROCK pathway and angiogenesis in adult rat brains in pathological processes such as ischemic stroke.In addition,it has not yet been reported whether constraint-induced movement therapy can promote angiogenesis in stroke in adult rats by overcoming Nogo-A/RhoA/ROCK signaling.Here,a stroke model was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion and reperfusion.Seven days after stroke,the following treatments were initiated and continued for 3 weeks:forced limb use in constraint-induced movement therapy rats(constraint-induced movement therapy group),intraperitoneal infusion of fasudil(a ROCK inhibitor)in fasudil rats(fasudil group),or lateral ventricular injection of NEP1-40(a specific antagonist of the Nogo-66 receptor)in NEP1-40 rats(NEP1-40 group).Immunohistochemistry and western blot assay results showed that,at 2 weeks after middle cerebral artery occlusion,expression levels of RhoA and ROCK were lower in the ischemic boundary zone in rats treated with NEP1-40 compared with rats treated with ischemia/reperfusion or constraint-induced movement therapy alone.However,at 4 weeks after middle cerebral artery occlusion,expression levels of RhoA and ROCK in the ischemic boundary zone were markedly decreased in the NEP1-40 and constraint-induced movement therapy groups,but there was no difference between these two groups.Compared with the ischemia/reperfusion group,modified neurological severity scores and foot fault scores were lower and time taken to locate the platform was shorter in the constraint-induced movement therapy and fasudil groups at 4 weeks after middle cerebral artery occlusion,especially in the constraint-induced movement therapy group.Immunofluorescent staining demonstrated that fasudil promoted an immune response of nerve-regeneration-related markers(BrdU in combination with CD31(platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule),Nestin,doublecortin,NeuN,and glial fibrillary acidic protein)in the subventricular zone and ischemic boundary zone ipsilateral to the infarct.After 3 weeks of constraint-induced movement therapy,the number of regenerated nerve cells was noticeably increased,and was accompanied by an increased immune response of tight junctions(claudin-5),a pericyte marker(a-smooth muscle actin),and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2.Taken together,the results demonstrate that,compared with fasudil,constraint-induced movement therapy led to stronger angiogenesis and nerve regeneration ability and better nerve functional recovery at 4 weeks after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion.In addition,constraint-induced movement therapy has the same degree of inhibition of RhoA and ROCK as NEP1-40.Therefore,constraint-induced movement therapy promotes angiogenesis and neurogenesis after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury,at least in part by overcoming the Nogo-A/RhoA/ROCK signaling pathway.All protocols were approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee of China Medical University,China on December 9,2015(approval No.2015 PS326 K). | Zhi-Yong Zhai Juan Feng | 2019 | Neural Regeneration Research2019,14,10: | 22 |
| 11 | Quantification of angiogenesis by CT perfusion imaging in liver tumor of rabbit显示文摘BACKGROUND:Tumor angiogenesis is essential for primary and metastatic tumor growth.Computed tomography perfusion(CTP)is a new imaging method,made possible by the recent development of fast CT scanners and improved data analysis techniques,which allows measurement of the physiologic and hemodynamic properties of tissue vasculature.This study aimed to evaluate CTP in the quantification of angiogenesis and to assess the relationship between tissue perfusion parameters and microvascular density(MVD)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),attempting to detect the physiologic properties of angiogenesis.METHODS:Sixteen rabbits with VX2 liver tumors underwent multi-slice CT perfusion(MSCTP)on day 14 after tumor inoculation.CTP parameters included hepatic blood flow(HBF),hepatic blood volume(HBV),mean transit time(MTT),permeability of capillary vessel surface(PS),hepatic artery index(HAI),hepatic artery perfusion(HAP),and hepatic portal perfusion(HPP).The border of the tumor was stained with CD34 and VEGF immunohistochemical stains,and MVD was measured by anti-CD34.Then,CTP parameters were determined whether they were correlated with MVD and VEGF using Pearson’s correlation coefficient.RESULTS:The positive expression of MVD was different in the center and border of the tumor(P<0.01).There was a positive correlation between MVD and VEGF in the border(P<0.05).As more VEGF was expressed,the number of microvessels increased.Correlation analyses were also made between the perfusion parameters and MVD and VEGF in the border of the tumor.HBF,PS,HAI,and HAP values were positively correlated with MVD and VEGF(P<0.05),HPP was negatively correlated with MVD and VEGF(P<0.01),and HBV and MTT values were not correlated with MVD and VEGF(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Significant correlations were found between perfusion parameters and MVD and VEGF.Therefore,MSCTP can be used to evaluate tumor angiogenesis in vivo. | Jiang, Hui-Jie Zhang, Zai-Ren Shen, Bao-Zhong Wan, Yong Guo, Hong Li, Jin-Ping | 2009 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2009,8,2: | 21 |
| 12 | Buyanghuanwu decoction promotes angiogenesis after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury:mechanisms of brain tissue repair显示文摘Buyanghuanwu decoction has been shown to protect against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury,but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.In this study,rats were intragastrically given Buyanghuanwu decoction,15 m L/kg,for 3 days.A rat model of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion.In rats administered Buyanghuanwu decoction,infarct volume was reduced,serum vascular endothelial growth factor and integrin αvβ3 levels were increased,and brain tissue vascular endothelial growth factor and CD34 expression levels were increased compared with untreated animals.These effects of Buyanghuanwu decoction were partially suppressed by an angiogenesis inhibitor(administered through the lateral ventricle for 7 consecutive days).These data suggest that Buyanghuanwu decoction promotes angiogenesis,improves cerebral circulation,and enhances brain tissue repair after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury. | Zhen-qiang Zhang Jun-ying Song Ya-quan Jia Yun-ke Zhang | 2016 | Neural Regeneration Research2016,11,3: | 21 |
| 13 | Roles of neural stem cells in the repair of peripheral nerve injury显示文摘Currently, researchers are using neural stem cell transplantation to promote regeneration after peripheral nerve injury, as neural stem cells play an important role in peripheral nerve injury repair. This article reviews recent research progress of the role of neural stem cells in the repair of peripheral nerve injury. Neural stem cells can not only differentiate into neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, but can also differentiate into Schwann-like cells, which promote neurite outgrowth around the injury. Transplanted neural stem cells can differentiate into motor neurons that innervate muscles and promote the recovery of neurological function. To promote the repair of peripheral nerve injury, neural stem cells secrete various neurotrophic factors, including brain-derived neurotrophic factor, fibroblast growth factor, nerve growth factor, insulin-like growth factor and hepatocyte growth factor. In addition, neural stem cells also promote regeneration of the axonal myelin sheath, angiogenesis, and immune regulation. It can be concluded that neural stem cells promote the repair of peripheral nerve injury through a variety of ways. | Chong Wang Chang-feng Lu Jiang Peng Cheng-dong Hu Yu Wang | 2017 | Neural Regeneration Research2017,12,12: | 20 |
| 14 | Electroacupuncture improves neurovascular unit reconstruction by promoting collateral circulation and angiogenesis显示文摘Acupuncture at Shuigou(GV26) shows good clinical efficacy for treating stroke, but its mechanism remains poorly understood. In this study, a cerebral infarction model of ischemia/reperfusion injury received electroacupuncture at GV26(15 Hz and 1 m A, continuous wave [biphasic pulses], for 5 minutes). Electroacupuncture effectively promoted regional cerebral blood flow on the infarct and non-infarct sides, increased infarct lesions, lectin, and number of blood vessels, upregulated von Willebrand factor and cell proliferation marker Ki67 expression, and diminished neurological severity score. These findings confirm that electroacupuncture at GV26 promotes establishment of collateral circulation and angiogenesis, and improves neurological function. | Lei Shi Hong-mei Cao Ying Li Shi-xin Xu Yan Zhang Yang Zhang Zhe-feng Jin | 2017 | Neural Regeneration Research2017,12,12: | 19 |
| 15 | The molecular mechanism underlying angiogenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma: the imbalance activation of signaling pathways显示文摘OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of two dominating signaling pathways, VEGF/KDR andangiopoietins/Tie2, on the formation of new blood vessel in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) growth andmetastasis.METHODS: RT-PCR and Western blot were employed to evaluate the VEGF/KDR andangiopoietins/Tie2 expression in samples from 23 patients with HCC. Meanwhile, microvessel density(MVD) was determined as a marker of angiogenesis by counting CD34 positive cells with the method ofimmunohistochemistry.RESULTS: The two pathways were activated in all HCC samples. The expressions of vascular endothelialgrowth factor (VEGF) and angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) were significantly higher (P<0.05) in hepatocellularcarcinoma tissues and the margin of the tumor than those in control groups, and so did CD34 positivecells. Although significant difference in the expression of kinase insert domain containing receptor (KDR)and Ang1/Tie2 was not observed in all groups, their distinct high levels were seen in hepatoma and itsmargin compared with normal and cirrhotic liver. VEGF and Ang2 expressions were seen up-regulated inHCC with vascular invasion and satellite lesion.CONCLUSIONS: The two signaling pathways, VEGF/KDR and angiopoietins/Tie2 are activated in theprocess of angiogenesis in HCC and modulate the formation of new blood vessels. The imparity of the twosignaling pathways’ activation is to benefit HCC metastasis. In the two pathways, VEGF and Ang2 mayplay an important role in the process of angiogenesis, and are necessary indicators for the prognosis andmetastasis of HCC. This study provides another clue for the exploration of anti-angiogenic agents. | Zhi-Cheng Zhao Shu-Sen Zheng Yun-Le Wan Chang-Ku Jia Hai-Yang Xie the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou 310003, China | 2003 | Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2003,2,4: | 19 |

| 18 | Effect of electroacupuncture on expression of Ang/Tie-2 mRNA and protein in rats with acute cerebral infarction显示文摘OBJECTIVE: To identify the intervention mechanism of the effect of electroacupuncture on the expression of Ang/Tie-2 m RNA and protein in rats with acute cerebral infarction induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO).METHODS: Altogether 120 Wistar rats were subjected to MCAO by inserting a nylon filament, andthen divided into 3 groups: control group, injured group and electroacupuncture group. The injured and electroacupuncture groups were further divided into the following 7 subgroups according to the time after MCAO: 3, 6, 12, 24 h, 3, 7 and 12 d, with 8 rats in each subgroup. The electroacupuncture group was given electroacupuncture treatment at Shuigou(GV 26) instantly after operation. The rats were killed at different time points according to their groups, and then the expression levels of Ang/Tie-2 m RNA and protein were detected using Real-Time polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemical staining.RESULTS: The m RNA and protein expression levels of Ang/Tie-2 in the electroacupuncture group were significant higher than that in the injured group.CONCLUSION: The results suggested that electroacupuncture could significantly regulate the expression of Ang/Tie-2 m RNA and protein in the rats with acute cerebral infarction induced by MCAO, and enhance angiogenesis after ischemic penumbra. | Li Jing Bai Zonglu Du Yuanhao Li Yongfeng Zhang Xuezhu Pang Bo Zhang Jingjing | 2017 | Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine2017,37,5: | 17 |
| 19 | Nestin:A novel angiogenesis marker and possible target for tumor angiogenesis显示文摘Abnormal vasculature,termed tumor vessels,is a hallmark of solid tumors.The degree of angiogenesis is associated with tumor aggressiveness and clinical outcome.Therefore,exact quantification of tumor vessels is useful to evaluate prognosis.Furthermore,selective detection of newly formed tumor vessels within cancer tissues using specific markers raises the possibility of molecular targeted therapy via the inhibition of tumor angiogenesis.Nestin,an intermediate filament protein,is reportedly expressed in repair processes,various neoplasms,and proliferating vascular endothelial cells.Nestin expression is detected in endothelial cells of embryonic capillaries,capillaries of the corpus luteum,which replenishes itself by angiogenesis,and proliferating endothelial progenitor cells,but not in mature endothelial cells.Therefore,expression of nestin is relatively limited to proliferating vascular endothelial cells and endothelial progenitor cells.Nestin expression is also reported in blood vessels within glioblastoma,prostate cancer,colorectal cancer,and pancreatic cancer,and its expression is more specific for newly formed blood vessels than other endothelial cell markers.Nestin-positive blood vessels form smaller vessels with high proliferation activity in tumors.Knockdown of nestin in vascular endothelial cells suppresses endothelial cell growth and tumor formation ability of pancreatic cancers in vivo.Using nestin to more accurately evaluate microvessel density in cancer specimens may be a novel prognostic indicator.Furthermore,nestin-targeted therapy may suppress tumor proliferation via inhibition of angiogenesis in numerous malignancies,including pancreatic cancer.In this review article,we focus on nestin as a novel angiogenesis marker and possible therapeutic target via inhibition of tumor angiogenesis. | Yoko Matsuda Masahito Hagio Toshiyuki Ishiwata | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,1: | 16 |
| 20 | Ectopic osteogenesis and angiogenesis regulated by porous architecture of hydroxyapatite scaffolds with similar interconnecting structure in vivo显示文摘The macro-pore sizes of porous scaffold play a key role for regulating ectopic osteogenesis and angiogenesis but many researches ignored the influence of interconnection between macro-pores with different sizes.In order to accurately reveal the relationship between ectopic osteogenesis and macro-pore sizes in dorsal muscle and abdominal cavities of dogs,hydroxyapatite(HA)scaffolds with three different macro-pore sizes of 500–650,750–900 and 1100–1250 mm were prepared via sugar spheres-leaching process,which also had similar interconnecting structure determined by keeping the d/s ratio of interconnecting window diameter to macro-pore size constant.The permeability test showed that the seepage flow of fluid through the porous scaffolds increased with the increase of macro-pore sizes.The cell growth in three scaffolds was not affected by the macro-pore sizes.The in vivo ectopic implantation results indicated that the macro-pore sizes of HA scaffolds with the similar interconnecting structure have impact not only the speed of osteogenesis and angiogenesis but also the space distribution of newly formed bone.The scaffold with macro-pore sizes of 750–900 mm exhibited much faster angiogenesis and osteogenesis,and much more uniformly distribution of new bone than those with othermacro-pore sizes.This work illustrates the importance of a suitable macro-pore sizes in HA scaffolds with the similar interconnecting structure which provides the environment for ectopic osteogenesis and angiogenesis. | Jinyu Li Wei Zhi Taotao Xu Feng Shi Ke Duan JianxinWang Yandong Mu Jie Weng | 2016 | Regenerative Biomaterials2016,3,5: | 16 |
