STS ⅡA inhibited angiogenesis of lung adenocarcinoma by activating FOXO3 to inhibit CXCL1/STAT3/VEGF pathway.

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most popular type of lung cancer. Sulfotanshinone IIA sodium (STS IIA) has been proven to have an anticancer effect. However, its role in LUAD and its underlying mechanism remain unclear.

eEF-2K knockdown synergizes with STS treatment to inhibit cell proliferation, migration, and invasion via the TG2/ERK pathway in A549 cells.

Emerging research has suggested the anticancer potential of tanshinone IIA, the bioactive ingredient isolated from the traditional Chinese herb Salvia miltiorrhiza. However, the molecular mechanism of sodium tanshinone IIA sulfonate (STS) antilung cancer effect is not very clear. In this study, our purpose is to investigate the roles of STS and elongation factor-2 kinase (eEF-2K) in regulating the proliferation, migration, and invasion of A549 cells and explore the implicated pathways.

[Circ_0001666 promotes the proliferation and inhibits apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer cells by targeting the miR-330-5p/HMGA2 axis].

Many studies have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a key regulatory role in the whole biological process of tumors. The purpose of this study was to explore the biological function and molecular mechanism of circ_0001666 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), so as to provide new targets for the diagnosis and treatment of NSCLC. Gene expression profiles were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO, GSE101586) and the differential genes were obtained by using GEO2R analysis.

ADAMTS-1 inhibits angiogenesis via the PI3K/Akt-eNOS-VEGF pathway in lung cancer cells.

Background: ADAMTS-1 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin repeats-1) is a recently characterized protein containing a metalloproteinase domain, a disintegrin-like domain and a thrombospondin type 1 motif, which is involved in angiogenesis. However, the roles of ADAMTS-1 in angiogenesis of lung cancer (LC) remain unclear.

Methods: The mRNA expression of ADAMTS-1 and VEGF was examined by qRT-PCR.

Effect of endostar combined with cisplatin on expression of VEGF and Sema3A of Lewis lung cancer rats.

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of endostar (ED) combined with cisplatin(DDP) on model of C57BL/6 rats, and to further investigate the inhibiting mechanism of endostar from tumor angiogenesis.

Methods: Lewis lung cancer cells were inoculated in C57BL/6 mouse, then the mouse were randomized into control group (group A), ED (group B), DDP (group C) and ED/DDP (group D). They were treated according to the plan.
