    Description: Lymphatic metastasis contributes to mortality from solid tumors. Whether metastasizing cancer cells reach lymph nodes via intratumor lymphatic vessels is unknown. Here, we examine functional lymphatics associated with mouse tumors expressing normal or elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C), a molecule that stimulates lymphangiogenesis. Although VEGF-C overexpression increased lymphatic surface area in the tumor margin and lymphatic metastasis, these tumors contained no functional lymphatics, as assessed by four independent functional assays and immunohistochemical staining. These findings suggest that the functional lymphatics in the tumor margin alone are sufficient for lymphatic metastasis and should be targeted therapeutically.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Padera, Timothy P -- Kadambi, Ananth -- di Tomaso, Emmanuelle -- Carreira, Carla Mouta -- Brown, Edward B -- Boucher, Yves -- Choi, Noah C -- Mathisen, Douglas -- Wain, John -- Mark, Eugene J -- Munn, Lance L -- Jain, Rakesh K -- R24-CA85140/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2002 Jun 7;296(5574):1883-6.

    Description: Molecules such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or placental growth factor-critical regulators of tumour angiogenesis-are also thought to mobilize into blood circulation bone marrow-derived cells (BMDCs), which may subsequently be recruited to tumours and facilitate tumour growth and metastasis. A study has suggested that BMDCs form 'metastatic niches' in lungs before arrival of cancer cells, and showed that pharmacological inhibition of VEGF receptor 1 (VEGFR1, also known as Flt1)-cognate receptor for VEGF and placental growth factor-prevented BMDC infiltration in lungs and 'metastatic niche' formation. Here we report that blockade of VEGFR1 activity does not affect the rate of spontaneous metastasis formation in a clinically relevant and widely used preclinical model. Therefore, alternative pathways probably mediate the priming of tissues for metastasis.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3065241/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3065241/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Dawson, Michelle R -- Duda, Dan G -- Fukumura, Dai -- Jain, Rakesh K -- P01 CA080124/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124-06A2/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124-07/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124-08/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124-09/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA085140/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA085140-06/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA085140-07/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA085140-08/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA085140-09/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA096915/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA096915-04/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA096915-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA096915-06A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA096915-07/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA096915-08/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA115767/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA115767-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA115767-02/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA115767-03/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA115767-04/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA126642/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA126642-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA126642-02/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R24 CA085140/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R24 CA085140-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA073479/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA073479-08/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA073479-09/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA073479-10/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA073479-11/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- T32 CA073479-12/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Sep 17;461(7262):E4; discussion E5. doi: 10.1038/nature08254.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Steele Laboratory, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02114, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19759568" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Acute exposure to ionizing radiation can cause lethal damage to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, a condition called the GI syndrome. Whether the target cells affected by radiation to cause the GI syndrome are derived from the epithelium or endothelium and whether the target cells die by apoptosis or other mechanisms are controversial issues. Studying mouse models, we found that selective deletion of the proapoptotic genes Bak1 and Bax from the GI epithelium or from endothelial cells did not protect mice from developing the GI syndrome after sub-total-body gamma irradiation. In contrast, selective deletion of p53 from the GI epithelium, but not from endothelial cells, sensitized irradiated mice to the GI syndrome. Transgenic mice overexpressing p53 in all tissues were protected from the GI syndrome after irradiation. These results suggest that the GI syndrome is caused by the death of GI epithelial cells and that these epithelial cells die by a mechanism that is regulated by p53 but independent of apoptosis.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2897160/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2897160/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Kirsch, David G -- Santiago, Philip M -- di Tomaso, Emmanuelle -- Sullivan, Julie M -- Hou, Wu-Shiun -- Dayton, Talya -- Jeffords, Laura B -- Sodha, Pooja -- Mercer, Kim L -- Cohen, Rhianna -- Takeuchi, Osamu -- Korsmeyer, Stanley J -- Bronson, Roderick T -- Kim, Carla F -- Haigis, Kevin M -- Jain, Rakesh K -- Jacks, Tyler -- K08 CA 114176/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- K08 CA114176/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- K08 CA114176-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA080124-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01 CA80124/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA014051/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 CA014051-38/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P30 DK043351/DK/NIDDK NIH HHS/ -- P30-CA14051/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- RC1 AI078521/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- RC1 AI078521-01/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- RC1-AI078521/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- U19-AI06775/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- Howard Hughes Medical Institute/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2010 Jan 29;327(5965):593-6. doi: 10.1126/science.1166202.

    Description: No growth factors specific for the lymphatic vascular system have yet been described. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) regulates vascular permeability and angiogenesis, but does not promote lymphangiogenesis. Overexpression of VEGF-C, a ligand of the VEGF receptors VEGFR-3 and VEGFR-2, in the skin of transgenic mice resulted in lymphatic, but not vascular, endothelial proliferation and vessel enlargement. Thus, VEGF-C induces selective hyperplasia of the lymphatic vasculature, which is involved in the draining of interstitial fluid and in immune function, inflammation, and tumor metastasis. VEGF-C may play a role in disorders involving the lymphatic system and may be of potential use in therapeutic lymphangiogenesis.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jeltsch, M -- Kaipainen, A -- Joukov, V -- Meng, X -- Lakso, M -- Rauvala, H -- Swartz, M -- Fukumura, D -- Jain, R K -- Alitalo, K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 May 30;276(5317):1423-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Molecular/Cancer Biology Laboratory, Haartman Institute, University of Helsinki, Finland.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9162011" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Solid tumors require blood vessels for growth, and many new cancer therapies are directed against the tumor vasculature. The widely held view is that these antiangiogenic therapies should destroy the tumor vasculature, thereby depriving the tumor of oxygen and nutrients. Here, I review emerging evidence supporting an alternative hypothesis-that certain antiangiogenic agents can also transiently "normalize" the abnormal structure and function of tumor vasculature to make it more efficient for oxygen and drug delivery. Drugs that induce vascular normalization can alleviate hypoxia and increase the efficacy of conventional therapies if both are carefully scheduled. A better understanding of the molecular and cellular underpinnings of vascular normalization may ultimately lead to more effective therapies not only for cancer but also for diseases with abnormal vasculature, as well as regenerative medicine, in which the goal is to create and maintain a functionally normal vasculature.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Jain, Rakesh K -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jan 7;307(5706):58-62.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉E.

    Description: Blood vessels deliver oxygen and nutrients to every part of the body, but also nourish diseases such as cancer. Over the past decade, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of angiogenesis (blood vessel growth) has increased at an explosive rate and has led to the approval of anti-angiogenic drugs for cancer and eye diseases. So far, hundreds of thousands of patients have benefited from blockers of the angiogenic protein vascular endothelial growth factor, but limited efficacy and resistance remain outstanding problems. Recent preclinical and clinical studies have shown new molecular targets and principles, which may provide avenues for improving the therapeutic benefit from anti-angiogenic strategies.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4049445/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4049445/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Carmeliet, Peter -- Jain, Rakesh K -- P01 CA080124/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- P01-CA80124/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA085140/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA115767/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA126642/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA163815/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA115767/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA126642/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01-CA85140/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2011 May 19;473(7347):298-307. doi: 10.1038/nature10144.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Laboratory of Angiogenesis and Neurovascular Link, Vesalius Research Center, VIB, Leuven B-3000, Belgium. peter.carmeliet@vib-kuleuven.be〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21593862" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
