FBXO22 promotes HCC angiogenesis and metastasis via RPS5/AKT/HIF-1α/VEGF-A signaling axis. (PubMed, Cancer Gene Ther)
Notably, inhibition of FBXO22 enhances the efficacy of Lenvatinib both in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, FBXO22 may present itself as a potential target for therapeutic intervention in the treatment of HCC.

Targeting OAS3 for reversing M2d infiltration and restoring anti-tumor immunity in pancreatic cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Immunol Immunother)
OAS3 deficiency in macrophages substantially impairs IL-10highVEGF-AhighM2d polarization and their pro-tumor functions while enhancing the therapeutic efficacy of gemcitabine and anti-PD-L1 mAb in humanized mouse models. In conclusion, OAS3 presents as a promising immune therapeutic target for reversing IL-10highVEGF-AhighM2d infiltration and restoring CD8+T cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity in pancreatic cancer.

Unlocking the diagnostic potential of vascular endothelial growth factor and interleukin-17: Advancing early detection strategies for hepatocellular carcinoma. (PubMed, World J Gastrointest Surg)
A receiver operating characteristic analysis further confirmed the diagnostic efficacy thereof, suggesting that VEGF and IL-17 could serve as valuable tools for early detection and treatment guidance. This study underscores the potential of integrating these biomarkers into clinical practice to increase diagnostic accuracy and improve patient management in PHC.

Co-inhibition of PGF and VEGFA enhances the effectiveness of immunotherapy in bladder cancer. (PubMed, Int J Med Sci)
Notably, the concurrent inhibition of PGF and VEGFA amplifies the therapeutic impact of anti-PD-1 treatment in bladder cancer. These findings provide further insights into the role of PGF in angiogenesis regulation and have conceptual implications for combining anti-angiogenic therapy with immune therapy in bladder cancer treatment.

A phase II open label, randomized clinical trial of atezolizumab with or without human recombinant IL-7 (CYT107) in advanced urothelial cancer. (PubMed, Clin Cancer Res)
Combining CYT107 with atezolizumab was safe and resulted in lymphocyte expansion, a doubling of the CR rate, and durable responses exceeding 2 years, however, the ORR was similar to atezolizumab alone. Increased and sustained doses of CYT107 coupled with patient selection strategies should be further investigated.

Cervicovaginal lavages uncover growth factors as key biomarkers for early diagnosis and prognosis of endometrial cancer. (PubMed, Mol Biomed)
Moreover, angiopoietin-2, FAP and VEGF-A significantly (p < 0.05-0.001) associated with tumor grade, size, myometrial invasion, and mismatch repair status. Our results highlight the innovative use of growth and angiogenic factors collected through CVL sampling for the detecting endometrial cancer, showcasing not only their diagnostic potential but also their prognostic value.

Inflammation mediated angiogenesis in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
MNC were treated with pro-inflammatory interleukin-6 (IL-6) and VEGF, in combination with inhibitors of JAK1/2 (Ruxolitinib), mTOR (Rapamycin), NF-κB (JSH23), SMAD (LDN-193189) and PI3K/AKT (Ly294002) signaling pathways, to evaluate eNOS, VEGF and HIF1α expression by immunoblotting, immunocytochemistry and RT-qPCR. We demonstrated elevated angiogenic factors in CLL, while VEGF and IL-6 independently stimulated HIF1α. VEGF stimulation of HIF1α was mostly mTOR dependent, while IL-6 stimulation was NF-κB dependent.

Plasma Angiogenic Factors as Predictors of the Efficacy of Second-line Chemotherapy Combined with Angiogenesis Inhibitors in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer: Results From the GI-SCREEN CRC-Ukit Study. (PubMed, Clin Colorectal Cancer)
The pretreatment plasma sVEGFR-1 and sVEGFR-3 levels could be predictive biomarkers for distinguishing BEV and RAM when combined with chemotherapy in 2L mCRC treatment. Based on the VEGF-A dynamics at progression, selecting RAM or AFL for patients with significantly elevated VEGF-A levels may be a 2L treatment strategy, with BEV considered for the third-line treatment.

Association of Orai1 and Peizo1 genes expression with cellular proliferation, metastasis and angiogenesis biomarkers in colon tumor biopsies of CRC patients. (PubMed, Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand))
Notably, mutant KRAS exon 2 samples exhibit elevated CCL3 and VEGFA expression, suggesting a nuanced link between specific KRAS mutations and the tumor microenvironment. These findings illuminate the intricate molecular landscape of colon cancer and emphasize the potential roles of calcium channels, angiogenesis-related genes, and oncogenic mutations as prognostic markers and therapeutic targets.

VEGFA/NRP-1/GAPVD1 axis promotes progression and cancer stemness of triple-negative breast cancer by enhancing tumor cell-macrophage crosstalk. (PubMed, Int J Biol Sci)
We also document an immunosuppressive function of VEGFA in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Therefore, the present study indicates crosstalk between TNBC cells and TAMs induced by VEGFA and provides a potential implication for the combination of immunotherapy and VEGFA-targeted agents in TNBC therapy.

VE-cadherin junction dynamics in initial lymphatic vessels promotes lymph node metastasis. (PubMed, Life Sci Alliance)
We conclude that VEGFA mediates zippering of VE-cadherin junctions in initial lymphatics. Zippering is accompanied by increased VE-cadherin fragmentation through VEGFA-induced Src kinase activation, correlating with tumor dissemination to sentinel lymph nodes.
