Journal ArticleDOI
VEGFR1-positive haematopoietic bone marrow progenitors initiate the pre-metastatic niche
Rosandra N. Kaplan,Rebecca D. Riba,Stergios Zacharoulis,Anna H. Bramley,Loic Vincent,Carla Costa,Daniel D. MacDonald,David K. Jin,Koji Shido,Scott A. Kerns,Zhenping Zhu,Daniel J. Hicklin,Yan Wu,Jeffrey L. Port,Nasser K. Altorki,Elisa Port,Davide Ruggero,Sergey V. Shmelkov,Kristian K. Jensen,Shahin Rafii,David Lyden +20 more
TL;DR: A requirement for VEGFR1+ haematopoietic progenitor cells that express vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1) home to tumour-specific pre-metastatic sites and form cellular clusters before the arrival of tumour cells is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Pathway in Tumor Growth and Angiogenesis
Daniel J. Hicklin,Lee M. Ellis +1 more
TL;DR: Recently, an anti-VEGF antibody (bevacizumab), when used in combination with chemotherapy, was shown to significantly improve survival and response rates in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer and thus, validate VEGF pathway inhibitors as an important new treatment modality in cancer therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
mTOR Inhibition Induces Upstream Receptor Tyrosine Kinase Signaling and Activates Akt
Kathryn E. O'Reilly,Fredi Rojo,Qing-Bai She,David B. Solit,Gordon B. Mills,Debra G. Smith,Heidi Lane,Francesco Hofmann,Daniel J. Hicklin,Dale L. Ludwig,José Baselga,Neal Rosen +11 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that feedback down-regulation of receptor tyrosine kinase signaling is a frequent event in tumor cells with constitutive mTOR activation, and reversal of this feedback loop by rapamycin may attenuate its therapeutic effects, whereas combination therapy that ablates mTOR function and prevents Akt activation may have improved antitumor activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Expression of VEGFR-2 and AC133 by circulating human CD34+ cells identifies a population of functional endothelial precursors
Mario Peichev,Afzal J. Naiyer,Daniel S. Pereira,Zhenping Zhu,William J. Lane,Mathew R. Williams,Mehmet C. Oz,Daniel J. Hicklin,Larry Witte,Malcolm A.S. Moore,Shahin Rafii +10 more
TL;DR: In an in vivo human model, it is found that the neo-intima formed on the surface of left ventricular assist devices is colonized with AC133(+)VEGFR-2(+) cells, suggesting a phenotypically and functionally distinct population of circulating endothelial cells that may play a role in neo-angiogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impaired recruitment of bone-marrow–derived endothelial and hematopoietic precursor cells blocks tumor angiogenesis and growth
David Lyden,Koichi Hattori,Koichi Hattori,Sergio Dias,Carla Costa,Pamela Blaikie,Linda J. Butros,Amy Chadburn,Beate Heissig,Willy Marks,Larry Witte,Yan Wu,Daniel J. Hicklin,Zhenping Zhu,Neil R. Hackett,Ronald G. Crystal,Malcolm A.S. Moore,Katherine A. Hajjar,Katia Manova,Robert Benezra,Shahin Rafii +20 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that recruitment of VEGF-responsive BM-derived precursors is necessary and sufficient for tumor angiogenesis and suggested new clinical strategies to block tumor growth are suggested.
