Expression of Antisense to Integrin Subunit beta 3 Inhibits Microvascular Endothelial Cell Capillary Tube Formation in Fibrin*

alpha vbeta 3 antagonists are potent angiogenesis inhibitors, and several different classes of inhibitors have been developed, including monoclonal antibodies, synthetic peptides, and small organic molecules. However, each class of inhibitor works by the same principal, by blocking the binding of ligands to alpha vbeta 3. In an effort to develop an alpha vbeta 3 inhibitor that down-regulates the actual level of alpha vbeta 3, we developed an antisense strategy to inhibit alpha vbeta 3 expression in vitro. beta 3 antisense expressed in endothelial cells specifically down-regulated alpha vbeta 3 and inhibited capillary tube formation, with the extent of down-regulation correlating with the extent of tube formation inhibition. This inhibition was matrix-specific, since tube formation was not inhibited in Matrigel. These findings support the notion that alpha vbeta 3 is required for an essential step of angiogenesis in fibrin, namely capillary tube formation. These results suggest that pseudogenetic inhibition of beta 3 integrins using antisense techniques may ultimately provide a therapeutic means to inhibit angiogenesis in vivo.
