1 | We identified prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) as a soluble tumor-derived angiogenic factor associated with VEGF-independent angiogenesis. | Dinoprostone | vascular endothelial growth factor A | Homo sapiens |
2 | We identified prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) as a soluble tumor-derived angiogenic factor associated with VEGF-independent angiogenesis. | Dinoprostone | vascular endothelial growth factor A | Homo sapiens |
3 | PGE2 production in preclinical breast and colon cancer models was tightly controlled by cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression, and COX-2 inhibition augmented VEGF pathway blockade to suppress angiogenesis and tumor growth, prevent metastasis, and increase overall survival. | Dinoprostone | vascular endothelial growth factor A | Homo sapiens |
4 | These results demonstrate the importance of the COX-2/PGE2 pathway in mediating resistance to VEGF pathway blockade and could aid in the rapid development of more efficacious anticancer therapies. | Dinoprostone | vascular endothelial growth factor A | Homo sapiens |
