1 Consistently, higher expression of VEGF, MCP-1 and NF-kappaB was observed in HCC tissues of alcohol-drinkers. Alcohols C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
2 Conversely, blockage of alcohol-mediated ROS accumulation and NF-kappaB signaling inhibited alcohol-induced expression of VEGF and MCP-1, the tumor growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Alcohols C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
3 Conversely, blockage of alcohol-mediated ROS accumulation and NF-kappaB signaling inhibited alcohol-induced expression of VEGF and MCP-1, the tumor growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Alcohols C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
4 CONCLUSION: This study suggested that chronic moderate alcohol consumption may promote the progression and metastasis of HCC; the oncogenic effect may be at least partially mediated by the ROS accumulation and NF-kB-dependent VEGF and MCP-1 up-regulation. Alcohols C-C motif chemokine ligand 2 Homo sapiens
