Thrombospondin‐1 as an endogenous inhibitor of angiogenesis and tumor growth

Open access
Lawler, Jack·2002·Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine

Abstract

Thrombospondin‐1 (TSP‐1) is a matricellular glycoprotein that influences cellular phenotype and the structure of the extracellular matrix. These effects are important components of the tissue remodeling that is associated with angiogenesis and neoplasia. The genetic mutations in oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes that occur within tumor cells are frequently associated with decreased expression of TSP‐1. However, the TSP‐1 that is produced by stromal fibroblasts, endothelial cells and immune cells suppresses tumor progression. TSP‐1 inhibits angiogenesis through direct effects on endothelial cell migration and survival and through indirect effects on growth factor mobilization. TSP‐1 that is present in the tumor microenvironment also acts to suppress tumor cell growth through activation of transforming growth factor β in those tumor cells that are responsive to TGFβ. In this review, the molecular basis for the role of TSP‐1 in the inhibition of tumor growth and angiogenesis is summarized.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
