Aggressive prostate cancer is associated with pericyte dysfunction
Tumor‐produced TGF‐β drives pericyte dysfunction in prostate cancer. This dysfunction is characterized by downregulation of some canonical pericyte markers (i.e., DES, CSPG4, and ACTA2) while maintaining the expression of others (i.e., PDGFRB, NOTCH3, and RGS5).

Introduction: Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common neoplasm of the larynx, and its evolution depends on tumor staging. Vascular endothelial growth factor is a marker of angiogenesis, and its expression may be related to increased tumor ...

Inhibition of the p110α isoform of PI 3-kinase stimulates nonfunctional tumor angiogenesis [PDF]
Understanding the direct, tumor cell–intrinsic effects of PI 3-kinase (PI3K) has been a key focus of research to date. Here, we report that cancer cell–extrinsic PI3K activity, mediated by the p110α isoform of PI3K, contributes in an unexpected way to ...

Vascular endothelial growth factor signaling in development and disease
Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs) are best known for their involvement in orchestrating the development and maintenance of the blood and lymphatic vascular systems.

A mouse model for vascular normalization and a human breast cancer cohort were studied to understand the relationship between vascular leakage and tumor immune suppression. For this, endothelial and immune cell RNAseq, staining for vascular function, and immune cell profiling were employed.

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor [PDF]
In this issue of Circulation Research , D’Arcangelo et al1 report highly interesting and unexpected results in that acidosis inhibits proliferation and migration of cultured endothelial cells, inhibits the formation of capillary tubes, but simultaneously increases expression of the endothelial growth factors vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF ...

Cytoplasmic p21 promotes stemness of colon cancer cells via activation of the NFκB pathway
Cytoplasmic p21 promotes colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC) features by destabilizing the NFκB–IκB complex, activating NFκB signaling, and upregulating BCL‐xL and COX2. In contrast to nuclear p21, cytoplasmic p21 enhances spheroid formation and stemness transcription factor CD133.

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) and Platelet (PF-4) Factor 4 Inputs Modulate Human Microvascular Endothelial Signaling in a Three-Dimensional Matrix Migration Context [PDF]
The process of angiogenesis is under complex regulation in adult organisms, particularly as it often occurs in an inflammatory post-wound environment. As such, there are many impacting factors that will regulate the generation of new blood vessels which ...
