Popis: | Tumor angiogenesis is closely associated with clinical staging and has been proposed to correlate with clinical response in terms of subsequent metastases following primary resection. Netrin-4 (NT-4) regulates angiogenic responses. Therefore, we sought to examine the effects of NT-4 on the primary tumor growth of colon cancer cells, liver and lung metastases of colon cancer cells, and responses following primary tumor resection. We used 3 different mouse models of orthotopic primary tumor and liver and lung metastases, comparing 2 human colon cancer cells lines: wild-type (low expression of NT-4) and NT-4 (overexpression of NT-4) LS174 cells. NT-4 overexpression inhibited the primary tumor growth of colorectal LS174 xenografts in nude mice (144.3±12.9 vs. 62.4±4.5 mm3; p |
