Regulation of Angiogenesis and Blood Supply01:24

Regulation of Angiogenesis and Blood Supply

2.6K
Rapidly dividing tumors, embryos, and wounded tissues require more oxygen than usual, lowering the oxygen concentration in the blood. At low oxygen or hypoxic conditions, an oxygen-sensitive transcription factor called the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 or HIF1 is activated. HIF1 is a dimeric protein of alpha (ɑ) and beta (β) subunits.  Under optimal oxygen conditions, HIF1β is present in the nucleus while HIF1ɑ remains in the cytosol. HIF1ɑ is hydroxylated by prolyl...

Mechanism of Angiogenesis01:10

Mechanism of Angiogenesis

5.4K
Blood vessel formation starts early during embryonic development, around day 7. In the extraembryonic yolk sac, mesodermal precursor cells called hemangioblast proliferate and differentiate into angioblast. Angioblasts express vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 or VEGFR2, which binds VEGF-A, a proangiogenic factor, guiding blood vessel formation. VEGF signaling promotes angioblasts to form a blood island in the developing embryo. Angioblasts further differentiate, giving rise to...

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression03:03

mTOR Signaling and Cancer Progression

3.8K
The mammalian target of rapamycin or mTOR protein was discovered in 1994 due to its direct interaction with rapamycin. The protein gets its name from a yeast homolog called TOR. The mTOR protein complex in mammalian cells plays a major role in balancing anabolic processes such as the synthesis of proteins, lipids, and nucleotides and catabolic processes, such as autophagy in response to environmental cues, such as availability of nutrients and growth factors.
The mTOR pathway or the...

Targeted Cancer Therapies02:57

Targeted Cancer Therapies

7.6K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
There are several types of targeted therapies against...

Background:

  • Endothelial cell (EC) metabolism is fundamental to angiogenesis, supporting vascular migration, proliferation, and homeostasis.
  • Aberrant EC metabolism is implicated in vascular diseases, particularly cancer.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the metabolic regulation of angiogenesis by EC metabolites and enzymes.
  • To explore therapeutic strategies targeting EC metabolism for disease intervention.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of EC metabolism in normal and diseased vasculature.
  • Analysis of metabolic pathways involved in angiogenesis.
  • Discussion of therapeutic targets within EC metabolism.

Main Results:

  • EC metabolism, including glycolysis, fatty acid oxidation, and glutamine metabolism, is critical for angiogenesis.
  • Dysregulation of EC metabolism contributes to pathological angiogenesis.
  • Targeting EC metabolic enzymes or metabolites shows therapeutic promise.

Conclusions:

  • EC metabolism is a key regulator of angiogenesis.
  • Interventions targeting EC metabolism can be leveraged to treat angiogenesis-associated diseases.
