Objective: We have previously shown that transient coronary artery occlusion stimulated coronary collateral growth (CCG) in healthy (Sprague Dawley) but not in metabolic syndrome (JCR:LA-cp [JCR] ) rats. Here, we sought to determine whether matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) negatively regulate CCG in the metabolic syndrome via release of endostatin and angiostatin.
Approach And Results: Rats underwent transient, repetitive left anterior descending occlusion and resultant myocardial ischemia (RI) for 0 to 10 days. CCG was measured in the collateral-dependent and normal zones using microspheres, MMP activation by Western blot, and endostatin and angiostatin by ELISA on days 0, 3, 6, 9, or 10 of RI. Endostatin and angiostatin were increased in JCR but not in Sprague Dawley rats on days 6 and 9 of RI. Increased endostatin and angiostatin correlated with increased MMP12 (≈ 4-fold) activation in JCR but not in Sprague Dawley rats on days 6 and 9 of RI. Inhibition of MMP12 in JCR rats nearly completely blocked endostatin (≈ 85%) and angiostatin (≈ 90%) generation and significantly improved CCG (collateral-dependent zone flow was ≈ 66% of normal zone flow versus ≈ 12% for JCR RI).
Conclusions: Compromised CCG in the metabolic syndrome is, in large part, because of increased MMP12 activation and consequent increased generation of endostatin and angiostatin, which inhibits late-stage collateral remodeling.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly vascularized carcinoma, and targeting its neovascularization represents an effective therapeutic approach. Our previous study demonstrated that the baculovirus-mediated endostatin and angiostatin fusion protein (BDS-hEA) effectively inhibits the angiogenesis of vascular endothelial cells and the growth of HCC tumors. However, the mechanism underlying its anti-angiogenic effect remains unclear.

Background: Early-onset bone dysplasia is a common manifestation of hypophosphatasia (HPP), an autosomal inherited disease caused by ALPL mutation. ALPL ablation induces prototypical premature bone ageing characteristics, resulting in impaired osteogenic differentiation capacity of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMMSCs). As angiogenesis is tightly coupled with osteogenesis, it also plays a necessary role in sustaining bone homeostasis.

Angiogenesis plays a significant role in the human body, from wound healing to tumor progression. "Angiogenic switch" indicates a time-restricted event where the imbalance between pro- and antiangiogenic factors results in the transition from prevascular hyperplasia to outgrowing vascularized tumor, which eventually leads to the malignant cancer progression. In the last decade, molecular players, i.

Precise coupling of two fundamental mechanisms, chondrogenesis and osteogenesis via angiogenesis, plays a crucial role during rapid proliferation of growth plates, and alteration in their balance might lead to pathogenic conditions. Tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) is characterized by an avascular, non-mineralized, jade-white "cartilaginous wedge" with impaired endochondral ossification and chondrocyte proliferation at the proximal end of a tibial bone in rapidly growing poultry birds. Developing vascular structures are dynamic with cartilage growth and are regulated through homeostatic balance among pro and anti-angiogenic proteins and cytokines.

Oxysterols and oxysterol-metabolizing enzymes have been implicated in the pathogenesis of various cancers. However, the distinct function of the oxysterol-metabolizing enzyme cytochrome P450 family 39 Subfamily A Member 1 (CYP39A1) in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. The aims of the current study were to evaluate whether CYP39A1 affects the oncogenic behaviors of CRC cells and to investigate the prognostic value of its expression in CRC.
