Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibition--a critical review.
Angiogenesis, or formation of new blood capillaries from preexisting vessels, plays both beneficial and damaging roles in the organism. It is a result of a complex balance of positive and negative regulators, and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most important pro-angiogenic factors involved in tumor angiogenesis. VEGF increases vascular permeability, which might facilitate tumor dissemination via the circulation causing a greater delivery of oxygen and nutrients; it recruits circulating endothelial precursor cells, and acts as a survival factor for immature tumor blood vessels. The endotheliotropic activities of VEGF are mediated through the VEGF-specific tyrosine-kinase receptors: VEGFR-1, VEGFR-2 and VEGFR-3. VEGF and its receptors play a central role in tumor angiogenesis, and therefore the blockade of this pathway is a promising therapeutic strategy for inhibiting angiogenesis and tumor growth. A number of different strategies to inhibit VEGF signal transduction are in development and they include the development of humanized neutralizing anti-VEGF monoclonal antibodies, receptor antagonists, soluble receptors, antagonistic VEGF mutants, and inhibitors of VEGF receptor function. These agents can be divided in two broad classes, namely agents designed to target the VEGF activity and agents designed to target the surface receptor function. The main purpose of this review is to summarize all the available information regarding the importance of the pro-angiogenic factor VEGF in cancer therapy. After an overview of the VEGF family and their respective receptors, we shall focus our attention on the different VEGF-inhibitors existent nowadays. Agents based upon anti-VEGF therapy have provided solid proofs about their success, and therefore we believe that a critical review is of the utmost importance to help researchers in their future work.Irina Sousa Moreira, Pedro Alexandrino Fernandes, Maria João Ramos
