Popis: | Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is mitogenic for endothelial cells and has been shown to induce angiogenesis and endothelial cell migration through stimulation of endothelial tyrosine-kinase receptors. Here, using confocal microscopy and the patch-clamp technique on endothelial cells, membrane permeability to calcium as well as cytoplasmic and nuclear free calcium levels have been investigated in the first stages of tyrosine-kinase receptor activation by VEGF. VEGF (0.5nM) as well as inositol trisphosphate (IP3) induced an activation of membrane calcium-permeable channels exhibiting a similar low conductance in the range of 10 pS. The VEGF-triggered activation of these calcium channels, mediated by IP3 and involving the intracellular calcium stores, results in an increase in both cytoplasmic and nuclear calcium levels in endothelial cells, potentially modulating gene expression. Finally, the effect of Ni2+, a calcium channel blocker, on endothelial cell proliferation has been studied. The results show that inhibition of extracellular calcium influx significantly inhibits VEGF-induced cell proliferation. In the process of cell stimulation by VEGF, and possibly by other growth factors, activation of calcium channels could then be a key step in calcium-regulated gene expression and cell activation. These results suggest that the use of calcium channel blockers could be a novel way of prevention or reversion of VEGF-induced tumoral angiogenesis. |
