title: [Modulation of angiogenesis induced by lymphocytes by extracellular matrix proteins].
abstract: The neovascularization is a known event in the de development of tumors. The progressive growth of solid tumors is strictly dependent on angiogenesis. Furthermore, shedding of tumor cells into the circulation is not observed in a prevascular phase of tumors. Therefore, the inhibition of angiogenesis could be a good target for cancer control. Lymphocytes from, tumor bearing-mice were capable of inducing neovascular response in the skin of syngeneic mice. This response was named syngeneic lymphocyte-induced angiogenesis (SLIA). This work was an attempt to study if two proteins present in extracellular matrix, collagen and fibronectin (FN), could modulate lymphocyte-induced angiogenesis. The angiogenic response induced by lymphocytes from S13 tumor bearing-nice in the skin of BAL/c mice was blocked by treatment with FN and Gly. Arg. Gly. Asp. peptide. On the contrary, collagen and Gly. Arg. Gly. Asp. Ser did not modify SLIA response.
