82 15277580 Immunosuppressive factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor, transforming growth factor-beta, prostaglandin E2, interleukin (IL)-10, and IL-6, are made frequently by cancer cells.
83 15277580 However, a number of factors appear to be made directly in response to signaling molecules, such as RAS, AKT, and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3, which are activated as a result of genetic events that occur during oncogenesis.
84 15530555 They also produce immune suppressive factors (VEGF, IL-10, PGE(2)) that exert systemic effects on immune cell function.

92 16397045 Tumor-derived cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and its product, prostaglandin E2, exert strong immunoinhibitory effects that block dendritic cell function and CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell proliferation and function.
93 16397045 Increased immunocyte trafficking was likely mediated by the generation of a Th1-type tumor microenvironment because COX-2 inhibition increased expression levels of mRNA for IFN-gamma, interleukin-12, IP-10, and MIG while lowering the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor within tumors.
94 16399439 Several approaches have been used: monoclonal antibodies targeting a ligand (eg, bevacizumab, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor), monoclonal antibodies targeting a receptor (eg, cetuximab, anti-epidermal growth factor receptor), vaccines targeting a ligand (eg, G17DT, anti-gastrin), or a cell surface antigen (eg, carcinoembryonic antigen-TRIad of COstimulatory Molecules, anti-CEA).

112 18204257 Both an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor monoclonal antibody, bevacizumab, and an anti- epidermal growth factor receptor monoclonal antibody, cetuximab, should prolong the survival of advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer by 2-3 months in combination with FOLFIRI or FOLFOX.
113 18214475 Many molecules have been demonstrated as positive regulators of angiogenesis, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and others.
114 18541347 The results showed that (1) the anti-rUfl antibodies could be elicited in the mice after immunization by recombinant plasmid pCR3.1-rUfl; (2) the birth rate of the female mice immunized by pCR3.1-rUfl was significantly reduced (p<0.01); (3) anti-rUfl antibodies could bind with uroguanylin in the uteri of the non-pregnant mice immunized by pCR3.1-rUfl; (4) in the non-mated experiments, in the uteri of normal, pCR3.1- and pCR3.1-rUfl-immunized mice, expression of p53 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was not detected, Bax was expressed, and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFbeta1) expression was very little; (5) in the mated experiments, p53, Bax, VEGF and TGFbeta1 were expressed in the uteri of saline- and pCR3.1-immunized mice that were pregnant.

127 18723067 The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the anti-vasculature effects and the anti-tumor effects of attenuated Salmonella typhimurium vaccine strain encoding murine vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor-2 (flk1) in combination with plasmid DNA vector encoding the murine interferon-induced protein of 10kDa (IP-10 or CXCL10) gene.
128 19020112 In vaginal mucosa, UTI-prone women had a lower concentration of tissue repair-associated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (P = 0.006) and less often had detectable amounts of the chief monocyte and DC chemoattractant, monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (P = 0.005), than the controls.
129 19020112 Normal lactobacillus composition was associated with increased IL-17 and VEGF concentrations in vaginal mucosa.
130 19020112 In vaginal mucosa, UTI-prone women had a lower concentration of tissue repair-associated vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) (P = 0.006) and less often had detectable amounts of the chief monocyte and DC chemoattractant, monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (P = 0.005), than the controls.
131 19020112 Normal lactobacillus composition was associated with increased IL-17 and VEGF concentrations in vaginal mucosa.
132 19038728 Still, cure rates have significant room for improvement and ongoing trials with "targeted" agents such as those active against the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and vaccine therapy will hopefully further increase the odds for patients with resected disease.
133 19344189 Standard treatments and current development of new therapies for malignant gliomas are reviewed, focusing specifically on growth factors and their receptors (e.g. epidermal growth factor receptor, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, and platelet-derived growth factor receptor), as well as the intracellular effector molecules that are downstream of these growth factors (e.g.
134 19344189 Ras/Raf/mitogen-activated protein kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT/mammalian target of rapamycin, and protein kinase C).
135 19414774 Our previous studies demonstrate that the stromal microenvironment of the spleen, lung, and liver can program generation of CD11c(low)CD11b(high)Ia(low) DCs with regulatory function (CD11b(high)Ia(low) regulatory DCs).
136 19414774 In this study, we used the freshly isolated tumor cells to mimic tumor microenvironment to coculture DCs and found that the freshly isolated tumor cells could drive DCs to differentiate into regulatory DCs with a CD11c(low)CD11b(high)Ia(low) phenotype and high expression of IL-10, NO, vascular endothelial growth factor, and arginase I.
137 19414774 Tumor-educated CD11b(high)Ia(low) regulatory DCs inhibited CD4(+) T cell proliferation both in vitro and in vivo. 3LL lung cancer-derived TGF-beta and PGE(2) were responsible for the generation of regulatory DCs.
138 19554480 Several modalities of vaccines have been tested against lipoproteins, cholesterol, molecules involved in cholesterol metabolism, atherosclerosis-associated microorganisms, and other molecules (heat shock protein, CD99, vascular endothelial growth factor-receptor, interleukin-2), with promising results.
139 19596413 Since HER2 (also known as ErbB-2, neu, and HER2/neu) is frequently overexpressed on cancer cells, HER2-targeted delivery of IL-12 to tumors may be a promising strategy for enhancing antitumor immunity.
140 19596413 Elevated IL-12 and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) levels, increased infiltration of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells, and reduced vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression in the tumors, as well as enhanced cytolytic activity of splenocytes were noted in the treated mice.
141 19622904 Some of them are already available in human trials or even approved vascular epithelial growth factor (VEGF) blockers such as Macugen, Lucentis, Avastin, VEGF Trap-Eye and Cand5; VEGF receptor blockers such as TG100801, vatalanib, pazopanib, Sirna-027 and a vaccine approach; inflammation inhibitors and immunosuppressants such as Retaane, Kenalog, ARC1905, POT-4, OT-551.
142 19880570 In non-systemic lupus erythematosus populations, vaccines against oxidized low-density lipoprotein, beta-2-glycoprotein I, heat shock proteins, lipoproteins, cholesterol, molecules involved in cholesterol metabolism, and other molecules (CD99, vascular endothelial growth factor-receptor, and interleukin-2) have been tested, with promising results.
143 20118536 The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 2 (VEGFR-2), also called fetal liver kinase 1 (FLK1) in mice and kinase insert domain receptor (KDR) in humans, is an endothelial cell specific receptor tyrosine kinase that mediates lung cancer angiogenesis.
144 20118536 To test this hypothesis, we evaluated whether immune responses to FLK1 could be elicited in mice by immunization with an orally administered DNA vaccine encoding the extracellular domain (ECD) of FLK1 (pcDNA3.1-FLK1(ECD)) carried by attenuated Salmonella typhimurium.
145 20204282 Intratumoral injection of pEGFC1-IGFBP7 inhibits malignant melanoma growth in C57BL/6J mice by inducing apoptosis and down-regulating VEGF expression.
146 20204282 Recently, genome-wide RNA interference screening study revealed that loss of expression of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP-7) is a critical step in development of MM, and this secreted protein plays a central role in apoptosis of MM.
147 20232389 We demonstrated that the expansion of MDSCs in the blood and spleen during tumor progression required B cells producing the inflammatory angiogenesis factors, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A and neuropilin-1 (NRP-1), a co-receptor for VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2).
148 20382859 Phenotypic EPC populations enumerated by flow cytometry [CD34(+)VEGF receptor (VEGF)R-2(+)CD133(+), CD14(+)VEGFR-2(+)Tie2(+), CD45(-)CD34(+), as a surrogate for late outgrowth EPCs, and CD34(+)CXCR-4(+)], EC-CFUs, and serum cytokine concentrations (high sensitivity C-reactive protein, IL-6, and stromal-derived factor-1) were quantified during the first 7 days.
149 20382859 Vaccination increased circulating leukocyte (9.8 + or - 0.6 vs. 5.1 + or - 0.2 x 10(9) cells/l, P < 0.0001), serum IL-6 [0.95 (0-1.7) vs. 0 (0-0) ng/l, P = 0.016], and VEGF-A [60 (45-94) vs. 43 (21-64) pg/l, P = 0.006] concentrations at 6 h and serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein at 24 h [2.7 (1.4-3.6) vs. 0.4 (0.2-0.8) mg/l, P = 0.037].
150 20382859 Vaccination caused a 56.7 + or - 7.6% increase in CD14(+) cells at 6 h (P < 0.001) and a 22.4 + or - 6.9% increase in CD34(+) cells at 7 days (P = 0.04).
151 20382859 Phenotypic EPC populations enumerated by flow cytometry [CD34(+)VEGF receptor (VEGF)R-2(+)CD133(+), CD14(+)VEGFR-2(+)Tie2(+), CD45(-)CD34(+), as a surrogate for late outgrowth EPCs, and CD34(+)CXCR-4(+)], EC-CFUs, and serum cytokine concentrations (high sensitivity C-reactive protein, IL-6, and stromal-derived factor-1) were quantified during the first 7 days.
152 20382859 Vaccination increased circulating leukocyte (9.8 + or - 0.6 vs. 5.1 + or - 0.2 x 10(9) cells/l, P < 0.0001), serum IL-6 [0.95 (0-1.7) vs. 0 (0-0) ng/l, P = 0.016], and VEGF-A [60 (45-94) vs. 43 (21-64) pg/l, P = 0.006] concentrations at 6 h and serum high sensitivity C-reactive protein at 24 h [2.7 (1.4-3.6) vs. 0.4 (0.2-0.8) mg/l, P = 0.037].
153 20382859 Vaccination caused a 56.7 + or - 7.6% increase in CD14(+) cells at 6 h (P < 0.001) and a 22.4 + or - 6.9% increase in CD34(+) cells at 7 days (P = 0.04).
154 20473939 Besides, a favorable host environment was created by the reduced secretion of interleukin-10 and 6 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the tumor niche and decreased the expression of phosphorylation-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 of TC-1 tumors.
155 20810819 Cellular responses were assessed by investigating molecular changes at cell-cell junctions and by determining levels of secreted IL-6, IL-8, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the culture medium.
156 20810819 These barrier changes were associated with disruption of junctional vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin) and F-actin and an increase in endothelial secretion of IL-6 and IL-8.
157 21431419 While the VEGF/VEGFR pathway is a viable target for anti-angiogenesis tumor therapy, additional targets involved in tumor neovascularization have been identified.
158 21468000 Optimizing DC vaccination by combination with oncolytic adenovirus coexpressing IL-12 and GM-CSF.
159 21468000 To overcome these obstacles and enhance the efficiency of DC vaccination, we generated interleukin (IL)-12- and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)-coexpressing oncolytic adenovirus (Ad-ΔB7/IL12/GMCSF) as suitable therapeutic adjuvant to eliminate immune suppression and promote DC function.
160 21468000 By treating tumors with Ad-ΔB7/IL12/GMCSF prior to DC vaccination, DCs elicited greater antitumor effects than in response to either treatment alone.
161 21468000 This result was associated with upregulation of CC-chemokine ligand 21 (CCL21(+)) lymphatics in tumors treated with Ad-ΔB7/IL12/GMCSF.
162 21468000 Moreover, the proportion of CD4(+)CD25(+) T-cells and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression was decreased in mice treated with the combination therapy.
163 21468000 Furthermore, combination therapy using immature DCs also showed effective antitumor effects when combined with Ad-ΔB7/IL12/GMCSF.
164 21468000 Taken together, oncolytic adenovirus coexpressing IL-12 and GM-CSF in combination with DC vaccination has synergistic antitumor effects and can act as a potent adjuvant for promoting and optimizing DC vaccination.
165 21482223 Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been known as a potential vasculogenic and angiogenic factor and its receptor (VEGFR2) is a major receptor to response to the angiogenic activity of VEGF.
166 21482223 The inhibitive effects against angiogenesis were studied using CD31 and CD105 via histological analysis.
167 21482223 Antitumor activity and autoantibody production of mVEGFR2 could be neutralized by the depletion of CD4+T lymphocytes.
168 21705623 MHC class I-restricted CD8(+) T cells play an important role in protective immunity against mycobacteria.
169 21705623 Immunization with 9mer or 30mer covering the p113-121 sequence combined with TLR9 agonist CpG induced HLA-A*0201-restricted, M. leprae-specific CD8(+) T cells as visualized by p113-121/HLA-A*0201 tetramers.
170 21705623 Most CD8(+) T cells produced IFN-γ, but distinct IFN-γ(+)/TNF-α(+) populations were detected simultaneously with significant secretion of CXCL10/IFN-γ-induced protein 10, CXCL9/MIG, and VEGF.
171 21705623 Strikingly, peptide immunization also induced high ML1419c-specific IgG levels, strongly suggesting that peptide-specific CD8(+) T cells provide help to B cells in vivo, as CD4(+) T cells were undetectable.
172 21705623 An additional important characteristic of p113-121-specific CD8(+) T cells was their capacity for in vivo killing of p113-121-labeled, HLA-A*0201(+) splenocytes.
173 21705623 The cytotoxic function of p113-121/HLA-A*0201-specific CD8(+) T cells extended into direct killing of splenocytes infected with live Mycobacterium smegmatis expressing ML1419c: both 9mer and 30mer induced CD8(+) T cells that reduced the number of ML1419c-expressing mycobacteria by 95%, whereas no reduction occurred using wild-type M. smegmatis.
174 21881300 Moreover, PLGA microcapsules of siRNAs against VEGF, cFLIP, Raf-1, and Int6 have also been developed to treat various cancers and arteriosclerosis obliterans.
175 21881300 To develop therapeutic nucleotides, a particle design is created using functional peptides, such as cell penetrating peptides (CPP), nuclear localizing signals (NLS), tight junction reversible openers (AT1002), bombesin, and dynein light chain-associated sequences. siRNA use should lead to a paradigm shift in drug discovery against various diseases.
176 22023479 One strategy is to induce overexpression of growth factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), glial cell-line derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), in the brain.
177 22351744 Novel therapies for metastatic renal cell carcinoma: efforts to expand beyond the VEGF/mTOR signaling paradigm.
178 22351744 However, the goal of cure remains elusive, and the agents nearest approval (i.e., axitinib and tivozanib) abide by the same paradigm as existing drugs (i.e., inhibition of VEGF or mTOR signaling).
179 22351744 Specifically, novel immunotherapeutic strategies will be discussed, including vaccine therapy, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA4) blockade, and programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibition, as well as novel approaches to angiogenesis inhibition, such as abrogation of Ang/Tie-2 signaling.
180 22351744 Pharmacologic strategies to block other potentially relevant signaling pathways, such as fibroblast growth factor receptor or MET inhibition, are also in various stages of development.
181 22351744 Although VEGF and mTOR inhibition have dramatically improved outcomes for patients with mRCCs, a surge above the current plateau with these agents will likely require exploring new avenues.

192 22481968 Immunological inhibitory cytokines, such as TGF-β, IL-10, IL-6 and VEGF, which are produced from myeloma cells, can modulate antitumor host immune response, including the abrogation of DC function, by constitutive activation of STAT3.
193 22483311 PD animal models are genetic: alpha-synuclein models, parkin (PINK 1 and DJ1) and leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 or pharmacological and neurotoxic: reserpine, 6-hydroxydopamine, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6- tetrahydropyridine, rotenone, paraquat/maneb, and trichloroethylene.
194 22483311 The latter include gene therapy, transplantation, erythropoietin, natural phenolic compounds, doxycycline, ethyl pyruvate, 9-methyl-beta-carboline, vascular endothelial growth factor, simvastatin, zonisamide, modafinil, melatonin, cannabinoids, rottlerin, fluoxetine, paroxetine, coenzyme Q10, N-acetylcysteine and vaccines like Bacille Calmette-Guerin, with different proposed mechanisms of action.
195 22772426 Molecular pathways involved in the progression of mHRPC include the androgen receptor, angiogenesis, endothelin receptor, tyrosine kinases (SRC, MET, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor, RET), and the receptor activator of nuclear factor-kB-ligand.
196 22842485 The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of vaccination with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A24-restricted human vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1)-1084 and VEGFR2-169 combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer.
197 22986450 Specific targets in this category included genes asso-ciated with the intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic pathways (CFLAR, TNFAIP3, TNFRSF10D, SOD2, BCL2A1, BIRC4, PIM2, TNFSF10, TNFRSF10C, CASP2 and CASP8) and genes that act via the NFĸB pathway and other mechanisms to prolong cell viability (NFKB1, NFKB2 and RELA, IL1B, CAST, CDK2,GADD45B, BCL3, BIRC3, CDK2, IL1A, PBEF1, IL6, CXCL1, CCL4 and VEGF).
198 22986450 Moreover, we demonstrate that the X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein remained abundant in polymorphonuclear leukocytes over 48 h of LVS infection, whereas BAX mRNA and protein were progressively downregulated.
199 23028860 Previously we have screened out Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 7 (IGFBP7) as a differentially expressed gene in post-implantation uterus versus pre-implantation uterus by suppressive subtractive hybridation.
200 23028860 After specific inhibition of IGFBP7, the T helper type 1 (Th1) cytokine IFNγ, was significantly elevated (p<0.05) and the Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-10, were reduced in uteri (p<0.05).
201 23028860 The expression of decidualization marker IGFBP1 and angiogenesis regulator VEGF were declined in uteri (p<0.05).
202 23028860 The expression of apoptosis-associated proteins, caspase3 and Bcl-2, were also declined (p<0.05).
203 23267878 These antigenic peptides were derived from 2 different testis cancer antigens, ring finger protein 43(RNF43) and translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 34(TOMM34).
204 23267878 We conducted a clinical trial of vaccines against colorectal cancer specific peptides(RNF43 and TOMM34) with tegafur-uracil/Leucovorin( UFT/LV) for the treatment of advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer.
205 23267878 The highest long-term survival was observed in the group showing cytolytic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses against both RNF43 and TOMM34, followed by the group showing CTL responses against only RNF43 or only TOMM34.
206 23267878 A new study has been planned in order to obtain more immunological responses, and we have started a clinical trial of vaccines against multiple peptides[RNF43, TOMM34, forkhead box protein M1(FOXM1), maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase(MELK), holliday junction recognition protein(HJURP), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)1, and VEGFR2]by using UFT/LV for the treatment of advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer.
207 23314271 Recently, analysis of tumor antigens using micro-arrays has revealed upregulation of cancer-testis antigens RNF43 and TOMM34 and vascular endothelial growth factor receptors VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 in colorectal cancer.
208 23314271 Four peptides (RNF43, TOMM34, VEGFR1 and VEGFR2) were emulsified with incomplete Freund's adjuvant (Montanide), and the resulting solution was administered subcutaneously once a week.
209 23323149 Preclinical models have shown that immunotherapy and targeted therapies like vascular endothelial growth factor and epidermal growth factor inhibitors work synergistically.
210 23404195 Non-specific immunotherapy has been for a long time a standard treatment option for patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma but was redeemed by specific targeted molecular therapies, namely the VEGF and mTOR inhibitors.
211 23404195 In addition, different combinatory strategies with immunomodulating agents like cyclophosphamide or sunitinib are outlined, and the effects of immune checkpoint modulators as anti-CTLA-4 or PD-1 antibodies are discussed.
212 23531110 Overexpression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) is identified in approximately 25- 30% of breast cancers and indicates a poor prognosis.
213 23531110 It is believed that aberrant activations of several signaling pathways involving the human epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/HER) family, phosphoinositide 3 kinase/Akt (PI3K/Akt) pathway, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family, contribute to the development of trastuzumab resistance.
214 23566846 Furthermore, tumor microenvironment consists of immunosuppressive cells that release immunosuppressive factors including IL-6, IL-10, IDO, TGFβ or VEGF.
215 23599689 The molecular targets we intend to discuss are epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), anaplastic large-cell lymphoma kinase (ALK), KRAS, C-MET/RON, PIK3CA.
216 23599689 ROS-1, RET Fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR).
217 23704211 Tumor-associated CD11c(+) cells invaded by cps were converted to immunostimulatory phenotypes, which expressed increased levels of the T-cell receptor costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86.
218 23704211 Indeed, intraperitoneal cps treatment triggered rejection of established ID8-VegfA tumors, an aggressive xenograft model of ovarian carcinoma, also conferring a survival benefit in a related aggressive model (ID8-Defb29/Vegf-A).
219 23708293 The two approaches yielded similar beneficial results in evaluation of the disease activity parameters (stool consistency, weight loss and colon length) as well as VEGF expression and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α).
220 23717436 Treatment of whole tumor cells with ethanol resulted in blockade of immune-suppressive soluble factors such as transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1, vascular endothelial growth factor, and IL-10 without decreased expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and the MUC1 tumor-associated antigen.
221 23717436 Moreover, the ethanol-treated tumor cells expressed "eat-me" signals such as calreticulin (CRT) on the cell surface and released immunostimulatory factors such as heat shock protein (HSP)90α and high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1).
222 24215158 Besides that the more passive strategies of antibody dependent cytotoxicity with the VEGF antibody bevacizumab or the carbonic anhydrase IX antibody girentuximab are discussed.
223 24287585 Co-treatment of purified IgG from immunized mice with HBc-VEGF showed in vitro neutralizing activity for VEGF-induced ERK phosphorylation and tube formation in cultured endothelial cells.
224 24354908 The development of therapies that target the VEGF and mTOR pathways have significantly altered the treatment landscape for this disease, with novel inhibitors providing substantial improvements in progression-free and overall survival over previous standards of care.
225 24393856 These antigenic peptides were derived from 2 different cancer-testis antigens, ring finger protein 43 (RNF43) and translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 34( TOMM34).
226 24393856 We conducted a clinical trial of colorectal cancer-specific peptide( RNF43, TOMM34) vaccines with uracil/tegafur( UFT)+Leucovorin( LV) for the treatment of advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer.
227 24393856 There were long-term survivors in the group showing cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses against both RNF43 and TOMM34, as well as in the group showing CTL responses against either RNF43 or TOMM34.
228 24393856 We started a clinical trial of vaccines against multiple peptides (RNF43, TOMM34, forkhead box protein M1 [FOXM1], maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase [MELK], holliday junction recognition protein[HJURP], vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1[VEGFR1], and VEGFR2) for the treatment of advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer.
229 24498547 Here, we report the results of a Phase I clinical trial to investigate the safety, immunostimulatory effects, and antineoplastic activity of a multi-target vaccine composed of four distinct peptides derived from cancer-testis (CT) antigens and vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs).
230 24498547 Each patient was vaccinated with HLA-A*2402-restricted peptides derived from the CT antigens kinesin family member 20A (KIF20A) and cell division cycle-associated 1 (CDCA1) as well as from VEGFR1 and VEGFR2 subcutaneously once a week, and disease progression was evaluated up to 6 mo later.
231 24633336 P53, hTERT, WT-1, and VEGFR2 are the most suitable targets for cancer vaccine therapy in HLA-A24 positive pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
232 24633336 All TAAs were frequently expressed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells, except for adenocarcinoma antigens recognized by T cells 1, melanoma-associated antigen (MAGE)-A1, and MAGE-A3.
233 24633336 Among the epitopes recognized by CTLs in more than two patients in the ELISPOT assay, 6 epitopes derived from 5 TAAs, namely, MAGE-A3, p53, human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), Wilms tumor (WT)-1, and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR)2, could induce specific CTLs that showed cytotoxicity against pancreatic cancer cell lines.
234 24633336 P53, hTERT, WT-1, and VEGFR2 were shown to be attractive targets for immunotherapy in patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and the induction of TAA-specific CTLs may improve the prognosis of these patients.
235 24668365 Gene expression analysis showed that Salmonella treatment induced expression of iNOS, arginase-1 (ARG1), and IFN-γ in the spleen, but down-regulated IL-4 and TGF-β.
236 24668365 Within the tumor, expression of iNOS, IFN-γ, and S100A9 was markedly increased, but ARG1, IL-4, TGF-β, and VEGF were inhibited.

244 25117071 The receptor for ligand is constitutively expressed on cells, TNF family protein: CD40.
245 25117071 The role of the CD40/CD40L pathway in the induction of body immunity, in inflammation, or in hemostasis has been well documented, whereas its involvement in neoplastic disease is still under investigation.
246 25117071 CD40L ligand may potentiate apoptosis of tumor cells by activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), AP-1, CD95, or caspase-depended pathways and stimulate host immunity to defend against cancer.
247 25117071 CD40L enhance release of strongly pro-angiogenic factor, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and activator of coagulation, TF, the level of which is correlated with tumor metastasis.

258 25301555 Recently, proangiogenic factors hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) have been known to promote left ventricular myocardial angiogenesis and lead to cardiac hypertrophy, and this would be involved in RV hypertrophy of PH patients.

287 25335716 These antigenic peptides were derived from 5 proteins identified as cancer-testis antigens(ring finger protein 43 [RNF43], translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 34[TOMM34], maternal embryonic leucine zipper kinase[MELK], forkhead box M1[FOXM1], and holliday junction recognition protein[HJURP])and 2 vascular endothelial growth factor receptors(VEGFR1 and VEGFR2).
288 25522727 Anti‑MAP antibodies were administrered to the models to assess the effects on HPSE activity, HCC growth, the expression of VEGF/bFGF and the value of micro‑vessel density (MVD).
289 25522727 These antibodies were able to specifically bind with the dominant epitopes of the precursor protein and large subunit monomer of HPSE, decrease HPSE activity, suppress the expressions of VEGF and bFGF, reduce the MVD, and markedly shrink the HCC volume.
290 25522727 Based on these findings, MAP vaccine based on the B‑cell epitopes of HPSE seemed to provide theoretical evidence for further study of the synthesized HPSE MAP vaccine in the treatment of HCC.

294 25550942 The results showed that the percentage of CD3(+) CD56(+) CIK cells after treatment increased significantly while the percentage of CD4(+) CD25(+) Treg cells decreased (P < 0.05).
295 25550942 We then studied and identified the mechanisms of the anti-tumor effects of the vaccines by analyzing a series of cytokines that are commonly involved in tumor progression and ascitic development including granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), tumor necrosis factor-α (TGF-α), tumor necrosis factor-β (TGF-β), Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1).
296 25874884 We have created and established a portfolio of validated peptide epitopes against multiple receptor tyrosine kinases and we have identified the most biologically effective combinations of EGFR (HER-1), HER-2, HER-3, VEGF and IGF-1R peptide vaccines/mimics to selectively inhibit multiple receptors and signaling pathways.
297 25891359 Response to the vaccine is characterized by specific antibody titers that neutralize VEGF/VEGFR2 binding and a cytotoxic tumor-specific response.
298 25941588 HER-3 peptide vaccines/mimics: Combined therapy with IGF-1R, HER-2, and HER-1 peptides induces synergistic antitumor effects against breast and pancreatic cancer cells.
299 25941588 The human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER-3/ErbB3) is a unique member of the human epidermal growth factor family of receptors, because it lacks intrinsic kinase activity and ability to heterodimerize with other members.
300 25941588 HER-3 is frequently upregulated in cancers with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/HER-1/ErbB1) or human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2/ErBB2) overexpression, and targeting HER-3 may provide a route for overcoming resistance to agents that target EGFR or HER-2.
301 25941588 We have previously developed vaccines and peptide mimics for HER-1, HER-2 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).
302 25941588 Combined therapy of HER-3 (461-471) epitope with HER-2 (266-296), HER-2 (597-626), HER-1 (418-435) and insulin-like growth factor receptor type I (IGF-1R) (56-81) vaccine antibodies and peptide mimics show enhanced antitumor effects in breast and pancreatic cancer cells.
303 25941588 This study establishes the hypothesis that combination immunotherapy targeting different signal transduction pathways can provide effective antitumor immunity and long-term control of HER-1 and HER-2 overexpressing cancers.
304 25941591 The serum level of chromogranin A (CgA), soluble TNF receptors (sTNFR1/2), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and MIP-1β and MCP-1 chemokines, was determined.
305 25941591 Low level or reduction of CgA and sTNFR and increase of MIP-1β and MCP-1 were found in patients sera.
306 26011014 Among the products are tumour-directed monoclonal antibodies with enhanced antibody-dependent cytotoxicity (ADCC), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), complement factor H (FH), keratinocyte growth factor (FGF7/KGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), asialo-erythropoietin (asialo-EPO, AEPO), alpha-galactosidase (aGal) and beta-glucocerebrosidase (GBA).

308 26137397 We furthermore observed a significant reduction of tumor perfusion after 38 d in vaccinated patients together with increased levels of serum biomarkers indicative of anti-angiogenic activity, VEGF-A, and collagen IV.

311 26391398 Ac2PIM-responsive miR-150 and miR-143 target receptor-interacting protein kinase 2 and transforming growth factor beta-activated kinase 1 to suppress NOD2-induced immunomodulators.
312 26391398 While Ac2PIM treatment of macrophages compromised their ability to induce NOD2-dependent immunomodulators like cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS)-3, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, no change in the NOD2-responsive NO, TNF-α, VEGF-A, and IL-12 levels was observed.
313 26391398 Further, genome-wide microRNA expression profiling identified Ac2PIM-responsive miR-150 and miR-143 to target NOD2 signaling adaptors, RIP2 and TAK1, respectively.
314 26391398 Interestingly, Ac2PIM was found to activate the SRC-FAK-PYK2-CREB cascade via TLR2 to recruit CBP/P300 at the promoters of miR-150 and miR-143 and epigenetically induce their expression.
315 26391398 Loss-of-function studies utilizing specific miRNA inhibitors establish that Ac2PIM, via the miRNAs, abrogate NOD2-induced PI3K-PKCδ-MAPK pathway to suppress β-catenin-mediated expression of COX-2, SOCS-3, and MMP-9.
