We have previously shown that intravitreal
injection of plasminogen kringle 5 (K5), a potent angiogenic inhibitor,
inhibits ischemia-induced retinal neovascularization in a rat
model. Here we report that K5 down-regulates an endogenous angiogenic
stimulator, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and up-regulates
an angiogenic inhibitor, pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) in a
dose-dependent manner in vascular cells and in the retina. The regulation of VEGF and PEDF by K5 in the retina correlates with its
anti-angiogenic effect in a rat model of ischemia-induced retinopathy.
Retinal RNA levels of VEGF and PEDF are also changed by K5. K5 inhibits
the p42/p44 MAP kinase activation and nuclear translocation of
hypoxia-inducible factor-1
Down-regulation of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and
Up-regulation of Pigment Epithelium-derived Factor
A POSSIBLE MECHANISM FOR THE ANTI-ANGIOGENIC ACTIVITY OF
PLASMINOGEN KRINGLE 5*
, which may be responsible for the
down-regulation of VEGF. Down-regulation of endogenous angiogenic
stimulators and up-regulation of endogenous angiogenic inhibitors, thus
leading toward restoration of the balance in angiogenic control, may
represent a mechanism for the anti-angiogenic activity of
K5.
