AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The combination effectively inhibits angiogenesis, reduces solid tumor growth, and prevents metastasis by synergistically targeting αvβ3 and α2β1 integrins, thereby controlling tumor invasion and metastasis.

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, however, a particularly effective method of using an agent or combination of agents remain to be discovered that, at least, (i) inhibits or prevents angiogenesis; (ii) treats solid tumors to contain and / or reduce tumor size; and (iii) inhibits or prevents the tumor invasion that leads to metastasis within a subject.
As such, a combination of select inhibitors could possibly limit this process.

example 1

A Human Model was Prepared to Correlate Angiogenesis With the Extracellular Matrix

[0081]In this study, we investigated the correlation between sprout angiogenesis and the integrity of an extracellular matrix (ECM) environment using in vivo and in vitro angiogenesis models. We used an αvβ3 antagonist and an α2β1 antagonist in the model, where the αvβ3 antagonist was the disintegrin echistatin, and the α2β1 antagonist was the disintegrin VP1 2 (ECL12).

Materials

[0082]A 3-D ECM model was prepared. Gelatin-coated, microcarrier beads (Cytodex-3) were purchased from Pharmacia (Uppsala, Sweden). Sterile, native bovine dermal collagen containing 95% type I collagen and 5% type III collagen (Vitrogen) was obtained from Collagen Biomaterials (Palo Alto, Calif.). Dimethyl dichlorosilane, aprotinin, dibutyryl cyclic AMP, hydrocortisone, trypsin, soybean trypsin inhibitor, and EDTA were obtained from Sigma Chemical Co. (St. Louis, Mo.). Endothelial cell basal medium (EBM), endothelial cell growth...

Cell Migration and Capillary Sprout Formation was Identified in Fibrin Gels and Type I Collagen Gels in the Human Model

[0085]FIGS. 1A-1C illustrate a study of human microvascular endothelial cell angiogenesis, according to some embodiments. A microcarrier, in vitro angiogenesis assay, previously designed to investigate bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cell angiogenic behavior in bovine fibrin gels, was modified for the study of human microvascular endothelial cell angiogenesis. The HDMEC were isolated from human neonatal foreskins and used, as described above, and images were captured at various magnifications, where the effect of angiogenic factors on sprout angiogenesis was quantified visually by counting the number and percent of EC-beads with capillary sprouts.

[0086]FIG. 1A shows the process in Step I, where human fibrinogen, isolated as previously described, was dissolved in M199 medium at a concentration of 1 mg / ml (pH 7.4) and sterilized by filtering through a 0.22 micron ...

Integrin Receptors Were Identified Using Porcine Cutaneous Wounds and Immunofluorescence Staining

[0091]Porcine cutaneous wounds were harvested at various times and then immunoprobed for expression of integrin receptors. See Xu, J and Clark, R. The Journal of Cell Biology 132:239-249(1996). Briefly, full-thickness wounds were made with an 8-mm punch on the backs of White Yorkshire pigs and harvested at the times indicated. Specimens were bisected; one half was fixed in formalin and stained with MASSON trichrome, the other half was frozen in liquid nitrogen for immunofluorescence studies. Anti-laminin antibodies (Gibco BRL) conjugated with biotin were used to identify wound vasculature. All antibodies were used at dilutions that gave maximal specific fluorescence and minimal background fluorescence on frozen tissue specimens. Bound antibody was detected by the avidin-biotin-complex (ABC) technique. Stained specimens were observed and photographed using a NIKON Microphot FXA epifluores...
