In the present study, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was used to induce endothelial differentiation of breast cancer stem‑like cells (BCSLCs), and methods including flow cytometry, western blotting and immunofluorescence were used to study the relationship between autophagy and the endothelial differentiation of BCSLCs.
The ratios of granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor and interleukin 1β cytokines, produced in tumor, to the expression of CSF2RA and IL1R2 depend on levels of interleukin 6, interleukin 8, tumor necrosis factor α, interferon γ, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and vascular endothelial growth factor A and are important factors affecting the progression and metastasis of the breast cancer.
The aim of the current study was to assess the effect of coenzyme Q10 supplementation on serum levels of interleukin 6, 8, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in patients with breast cancer undergoing tamoxifen therapy by a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial.
Taken together our findings suggested that SAL inhibits VEGF induced angiogenesis and breast cancer growth via interrupting HIF-1α/VEGF signalling and could be used as a promising antiangiogenic agent for breast cancer treatment.
Bevacizumab, the first anti-VEGF agent approved in the treatment of cancer, has demonstrated efficacy in breast cancer in combination with paclitaxel for the first-line treatment of HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer.
Level 1: The use of afatinib is not recommended in patients with brain metastasis due to breast cancer.There is insufficient evidence to make recommendations regarding: the use of epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors erlotinib and gefitinib in patients with brain metastasis due to nonsmall cell lung cancerthe use of BRAF inhibitors dabrafenib and vemurafenib in the treatment of patients with brain metastases due to metastatic melanomathe use of HER2 agents trastuzumab and lapatinib to treat patients with brain metastases due to metastatic breast cancerthe use of vascular endothelial growth factor agents bevacizumab, sunitinib, and sorafenib in the treatment of patients with solid tumor brain metastases.The full guideline can be found at: https://www.cns.org/guidelines/guidelines-treatment-adults-metastatic-brain-tumors/chapter_9.
HMGB1 enhanced vessel formation in breast cancer tissues by regulating hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1alpha), which in turn upregulates the expression of VEGF.
Pro-angiogenic factors, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), have been recognized as pivotal therapeutic targets in the treatment of breast cancer.
Similarly, F3 significantly reduced the expression of MMP-9, MUC1, N-cadherin, Twist, VEGF and vimentin in comparison with the TM (p < 0.01) group CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that F3 exerts anti-metastatic effects independent of its cytotoxic effects, and these are supported by the increased expression of E-cadherin concurrent with downregulation of MMP-9, MUC1, N-cadherin, Twist, VEGF and vimentin expression in breast cancer.
Ultrasound-mediated destruction of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) targeted and paclitaxel loaded microbubbles for inhibition of human breast cancer cell MCF-7 proliferation.
Collectively, our findings indicate that downregulation of miR20b by ASCs/SCF activates HIF-1α/VEGFA and induces BC cell EMT and metastasis, suggesting that this process is activated by the p-c-Kit/MAPK-p38/E2F1 pathway.
These results highlight that the survival of breast cancer patients with high co-expression of VEGF and IL-6 family cytokines is dependent on breast cancer subtype.
These results indicate that hypoxia induces miR-153 to fine tune the HIF1α/VEGFA axis in breast cancer angiogenesis and miR-153 could be used for breast cancer anti-angiogenesis therapy.
The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR2) expression and its gene polymorphisms on pathologic complete response (pCR) to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCT) in Russian patients with TN breast cancer.
The present study aims to investigate the probable role of SPARC genetic polymorphisms in development of breast cancer; their correlation with immunohistochemical expression of VEGF; and their association with breast cancer prognosis in the Egyptian population.
Since TQ has been reported to up-regulate several growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), EGF and PTEN expression, the present review article discusses the targeting potential of TQ for therapeutic intervention against such types of breast cancer.
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most malignant type of breast cancer with ample vascularisation and high vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression.
