Concomitantly, CA-4P up-regulated connective tissue growth factor (CTGF/CCN2), a pleiotropic factor with antiangiogenic properties. In contrast to the effects of other microtubule-targeting agents such as colchicine or nocodazole, up-regulation of CTGF was only detectable in sparse cells, which were not embedded in a cell monolayer. Furthermore, CA-4P induced CTGF expression in endothelial cells, forming tube-like structures on basement membrane gels. Up-regulation of CTGF by CA-4P was dependent on Rho kinase signaling and was increased when p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase was inhibited. Additionally, FoxO transcription factors were identified as potent regulators of CTGF expression in endothelial cells. Activation of FoxO transcription factors by inhibition of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT signaling resulted in a synergistic increase in CA-4P-mediated CTGF induction. CA-4P-mediated expression of CTGF was thus potentiated by the inhibition of kinase pathways, which are targets of novel antineoplastic drugs. Up-regulation of CTGF by low concentrations of CA-4P may thus occur in newly formed tumor vessels and contribute to the microvessel destabilization and antiangiogenic effects of CA-4P observed in vivo."}],"intvolume":"         7"}
