ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the role of suramin in inhibiting the angiogenesis of lung cancer. Methods The protei n expression of VEGF and its receptor fms-like tyrosine kinase(Flt), kinase ins ert domain-containing receptor(KDR) in lung cancer cell A549 and ECV-304 was studied with immunohistochemical technique. The anti-angiogenesis effect of su ramin was evaluated with immunohistochemical technique and cell culture. Results Suramin showed no effect on the production of lung cancer cel ls and their secretion of VEGF. No possitive expression of Flt, KDR in A549 was found in the suramin interfered group and non-interfered group, but VEGF w as e xpressed in both groups. The Flt and KDR expressions in ECV-304 cells were decr eased significantly after the treatment of suramin at 0.25 ng/ml and 2.5 ng/ml r espectively. There was no effect on proliferetion of A549 and ECV-304 after sur amin in terference. Conclusion The mechanism of inhibiting-angiogenes is of suramin is pro bably due to reducing the VEGF receptor expression in vascular endothelial cells and inhibiting the binding of VEGF and its receptors.
