Endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide- Ⅱ and tumor / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Endothelial monocyte-activating polypeptide-Ⅱ (EMAP-Ⅱ ) is a novel proinflammatory cytokine with proinflammatory,proapoptotic and antiangiogenic properties.It is associated with many tumorassociated proteins,such as tumor necrosis factor,vascular endothelial growth factor,hypoxia inducible factor-1α,arginyl-tRNA synthetase,and insulin-like growth factor- Ⅰ.EMAP-Ⅱ has anti-tumor properties and has a good prospect in cancer prevention and treatment.
