Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The present study investigated whether treatment with anginex, a novel antiangiogenic peptide, could block re-vascularization after radiation treatment. METHODS:A squamous cell (SCCVII) xenograft tumor mouse model was employed to assess the effects of anginex given post-radiation on tumor growth, microvessel density (MVD), and oxygen levels. The oxygen status was determined by the partial pressure of O2. RESULTS:Tumors in untreated mice increased threefold in 7.0 days, anginex-treated tumors (10 mg/kg intraperitoneal, twice) required 7.3 +/- 0.9 days, and tumors exposed to 8-Gy radiation increased threefold over 11 days. Combination treatment of anginex and radiation caused the tumors to grow threefold in 16.1 +/- 1.6 days, a delay which was significant and deemed supra-additive. Oxygen levels in tumors treated by stand-alone or combination therapies were significantly reduced; for example from 19.5 +/- 4.9 mmHg in controls to 9.7 +/- 1.9 mmHg in combination-treated, size-matched tumors. In addition, immunohistochemistry showed a decrease in MVD in the tumors treated with anginex, radiation, or the combination. These results suggest that a combination of anginex and radiation can greatly affect the amount of functional vasculature in tumors and prolong radiation-induced tumor regression. CONCLUSION:Antiangiogenesis therapy with anginex, in addition to radiotherapy, will be useful by blocking angiogenesis-dependent regrowth of vessels.
