About 50% of cancer patients receive radiation therapy. Here we investigated the hypothesis that tumor response to is determined not only by cell phenotype but also microvascular sensitivity. MCA/129 fibrosarcomas and B16F1 melanomas grown in apoptosis-resistant acid sphingomyelinase (asmase)-deficient or Bax-deficient mice displayed markedly reduced baseline endothelial apoptosis grew 200 400% faster than tumors on wild-type microvasculature. Thus, a homeostatic factor regulating...
Colon cancer stem cells are believed to originate from a rare population of putative CD133+ intestinal cells. Recent publications suggest that small subset colon expresses CD133, and only these capable tumor initiation. However, the precise contribution tumor-initiating in mediating metastasis remains unknown. Therefore, temporally spatially track expression CD133 adult mice during tumorigenesis, we generated knockin lacZ reporter mouse (CD133lacZ/+), which is driven by endogenous promoters....
Tyrosine kinase receptors for angiogenic factors vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) are expressed not only by cells but also subsets of hematopoietic stem (HSCs). To further define their role in the regulation postnatal hematopoiesis vasculogenesis, VEGF Ang-1 plasma levels were elevated injecting recombinant protein or adenoviral vectors expressing soluble VEGF165, matrix-bound VEGF189, into mice. induced a rapid mobilization HSCs receptor (VEGFR)2+...
Significance Increasing evidence suggests that extracellular vesicles (EVs) can transfer genetic material to recipient cells. However, the mechanism and role of this phenomenon are largely unknown. Here we have made a remarkable discovery: EVs harbor full mitochondrial genome. These in turn their mtDNA cells with impaired metabolism, leading restoration metabolic activity. We determined hormonal therapy induces oxidative phosphorylation-deficient breast cancer cells, which be rescued via...
