Comparisons of biophysical properties and bioactivities of mono-PEGylated endostatin and an endostatin analog [PDF]
Endostatin (ES) is a well-established potent endogenous antiangiogenic factor. An ES variant, called zinc-binding protein-ES (ZBP-ES), is clinically available; however, its use is limited by rapid renal clearance and short residence time. PEGylation has been exploited to overcome these shortcomings, and mono-PEGylated ES (called M2ES) as well as mono ...

Endostatin in the pancreas [PDF]
In this issue of the British Journal of Cancer, Brammer and co-workers investigate the status of endostatin expression in human pancreas cancer and normal pancreatic tissue. Endostatin was originally identified from the conditioned media of glioendothelioma cells as an inhibitor of angiogenesis (O'Reilly et al, 1997).

Association of Endostatin D104N with Leukemia [PDF]
The bone marrow and/or peripheral blood from 126 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 57 with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), 91 with acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL), and 178 normal controls were analyzed using a polymerase chain reaction‐restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) assay to evaluate the association of the endostatin ...

Abstract Background Although systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pregnancy frequently results in small for gestational age (SGA) infants, the understanding of underlying mechanisms is limited. We aimed to identify specific histological patterns of placental injury in SGA in SLE and to explore whether an altered balance of angiogenesis‐related proteins ...

Cellular Actions and Signaling by Endostatin [PDF]
The malignant transformation of a normal cell into a cancer cell requires no vasculature. Growth of solid tumors, however, requires angiogenesis to provide oxygen and nutrients to support cell proliferation. The switch from an avascular to a vascular phenotype is typically associated with acceleration of tumor growth. Antiangiogenic therapy, starving a

Biomarkers Correlating With the Development of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma From Leukoplakia
ABSTRACT Background We assessed protein biomarkers expressed in oral leukoplakia (OL) that are associated with the risk of transformation into oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Methods Tissue sections of OL transforming into OSCC (leuko‐ca), the corresponding OSCC and OL that did not progress to OSCC (leuko‐nonca) were analyzed with global relative ...

Serum Endostatin Levels in Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
Introduction: Endostatin is a C-terminal proteolytic fragment of collagen XVIII and, as with angiostatin and thrombospondin, is known as an antiangiogenic agent.

ABSTRACT Triple‐negative breast cancers (TNBCs) are associated with poor prognosis and chemoresistance. Recent reports indicate that extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules, such as integrins, could influence TNBC development. Integrins are adhesion macromolecules that modulate ECM characteristics such as stiffening of ECM and being associated with ...

Cathepsin L (CTSL) acts as a context‐dependent facilitator of tumour progression rather than a universal oncogenic driver. CTSL's pro‐tumorigenic functions are critically evaluated alongside its inherent biochemical constraints and family‐wide redundancy. CTSL‐related biology may provide translational opportunities in selected contexts.
