Target of Angiostatin / 中国药理学通报

ABSTRACT

Aim To investigate the specificity of angiostatin to vascular endothelial cells. Methods S-180 tumor imaging and autoradiography of angiogenesis on Matrigel model was developed with 99 Tcm-recombinant human angiostatin ( 99 Tcm-rhAS) as a tracer, and FCM on human microvascular endothelial cell-1 (HMEC-1) with FITC-rhAS or rhAS antibody. The binding protein of rhAS on HMEC-1 was isolated by af-finity chromatography, and the proteins was sequenced with MS. Results 99 Tcm-rhAS was concentrated on the tumor site in vivo, and the rhAS was specific to angiogenesis of tumor. There were some binding sites on the surface of HMEC-1. Three proteins which are able to bind rhAS were obtained by affinity chromatography, among which tubulin sequenced was an important target for tumor. Conclusion The angiostatin is specific to novel vascular endothelial cell, and its mechanism targeting tumor is complicated.
