Antiangiogenic Activity of rTRAIL is Potentiated by Sflt-1, a VEGF Trap

Author(s):

Yashaswini B, Adel Mutahar and Bharathi P Salimath

Objective: Anti-angiogenesis and pro-apoptosis are the two processes which are strategically used to target tumors. The soluble form of VEGF receptor 1 (Flt-1) is a modulator of VEGF activity and could be useful as a trap to intrinsically sequester VEGF in tumor cells. In the present study, we have investigated the role of rTRAIL in inhibiting VEGF-mediated angiogenesis and its synergistic potentiation by sFlt-1.

Methods: We have expressed human recombinant TRAIL, to study its role in anti-angiogenesis and a 2-domain active variant of sFlt-1 by bacterial expression to be used as a trap for VEGF. 3[H] thymidine incorporation assay was used to confirm the inhibitory activity of sFlt-1 and/or rTRAIL on cell proliferation.
