血管生成素-1 (ang1)在血管形成过程中对血管的成熟至关重要。除了血管生成,最近的出版物表明Ang-1也是内皮细胞的有效存活因子;然而,途径的机制仍然难以捉摸。阿霉素(DOX)是一种强效抗癌药物,但由于其心脏毒性,其使用受到严格限制。作者在这里报告了Ang-1抑制dox诱导的人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVECs)的细胞死亡。有趣的是,dox诱导的Fas (CD95/APO-1)和Fas配体表达上调可被Ang-1阻断,表明Ang-1在dox诱导的Fas和Fas配体表达中起关键作用。此外,在该模型系统中,细胞死亡的预防似乎依赖于磷脂酰肌醇3-激酶(PI3K)/Akt的激活,因为Ang-1无法抑制dox诱导的细胞死亡,而PI3K/Akt通路被PI3K抑制剂LY294002阻断。此外,Ang-1通过PI3K/Akt抑制dox诱导的p53上调。因此,Ang-1通过Fas和PI3K/ akt介导的途径是dox诱导的细胞死亡的有效抑制剂。
Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) is essential for the maturation of blood vessels during vasculogenesis. Besides angiogenesis, recent publications indicate that Ang-1 is also a potent survival factor for endothelial cells; however, the mechanisms by which pathways remain elusive. Doxorubicin (DOX) is a powerful anticancer drug, but its use is severely restricted by its cardiotoxicity. The authors report here that Ang-1 inhibits DOX-induced cell death in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Interestingly, the DOX-induced up-regulation in Fas (CD95/APO-1) and Fas ligand expression could be blocked by Ang-1, indicating a pivotal role of Ang-1 in DOX-induced Fas and Fas ligand expression. In addition, the prevention of cell death in this model system seems to be dependent on the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt, as Ang-1 fails to inhibit DOX-induced cell death while PI3K/Akt pathway was blocked by the PI3K inhibitor LY294002. Moreover, Ang-1 inhibits DOX-induced up-regulation of p53 through PI3K/Akt. Therefore, Ang-1 is a potent inhibitor for DOX-induced cell death through Fas and PI3K/Akt-mediated pathways.
