Tumor expansion is dependent on angiogenesis, which is regulated by peptide growth factors of which vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most selective and potent. VEGF expression is regulated by steroid hormones in a number of systems, including T47-D human breast cancer cells in
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VECF) is a 45kDa secreted peptide that has potent mitogenic activity specific for endothelial cells in vitro and the ability to induce a strong angiogenic response in vivo. In the present study, 24 h treatment with VEGF resulted in a stimulation of expression of t
The tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1 (TIMP-1) has at least 2 independent functions, i.e., regulation of matrix metalloproteinases and erythroid-potentiating activity. We investigated the effects of TIMP-1 over-expression on tumor growth, using cloned lines derived from a TIMP-1-transfected r
