| This difference leads to the specula tion that constitutive activation of EGFR may small molecule trigger strik ing induction of various transcripts, including pro angiogenic factors. In order to examine the molecular mechanisms underlying the induction of angiogenesis by EGFRvIII, the expressions of 60 angiogenic factors in LN229 cells were examined by real time PCR analysis. Al though VEGF A is a representative angiogenic factor and a possible therapeutic target for glioblastoma, VEGF A induction by EGFRvIII was observed only to a certain extent in vivo, and not at all in vitro. Among the 60 angiogenic fac tors, we first found that Angptl4 expression was signifi cantly induced by EGFRvIII overexpression, and that Angptl4 acts as a pro angiogenic factor in tumor xeno grafts. Recently, Bonavia, et al.<br><br> showed that the NF kBIL 8 pathway plays important roles in EGFRvIII induced angiogenesis and growth in gliomas, however, no sig nificant change of the IL 8 expression was observed in our in vitro experiment. It is likely that the differences between our results and those Lenalidomide 分子量 of the previous report are related to differences in the cell lines. The molecular mechanisms of Angptl4 induced angio genesis in malignant gliomas still remain largely unknown. Angptl4 is expressed in the liver, adipose tissue and pla centa, as also in ischemic tissues. It is a member of the angiopoietin family and is a target of members of the peroxisome proliferator activated receptor family, which are known as metabolic response transcription fac tors.<br><br> It has been reported that expression オーダー LY2603618 of Angptl4 is upregulated under various conditions including hypoxia and caloric restriction, and transcription factors such as PPARand Smad have been shown to regulate its expression. Increased Angptl4 expression has been shown in a variety of tumor tissues, such as oral Kaposis sarcoma, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer. Since a num ber of reports have indicated the effects of Angptl4 on angiogenesis, including endothelial cell proliferation, mi gration, differentiation, endothelial cell adhesion, and vas cular permeability, it seems likely that Angptl4 contributes to the increased angiogenesis and vascular permeability in gliomas formed by EGFRvIII cells.<br><br> More over, it has been demonstrated that Angptl4 disrupts vas cular endothelial cell cell junctions and promotes lung metastasis of breast cancer cells expressing transforming growth factor B, while preventing metastasis of mel anoma cells and also inhibiting angiogenesis. These diverse and often conflicting results suggest that Angptl4 exhibit tissue specific activity and act in accord ance with the prevailing cellular environment. Our results suggest that Angptl4 transcription is regu lated, at least partially, by EGFRvIIIERKc Myc mediated signaling. EGFR activation induces RasMEKERK phos phorylation, and phosphorylated ERK activates various transcription factors. It has been shown that MAPK signal ing contributes to Angptl4 expression. Myc is known as an ERK activated transcription factor. | |
