Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Chondrosaroma is a primary malignant bone tumor. Malignant tumor requires angiogenesis induction for its development. Bone tumor requires surrounding bone destruction for their development as well. Osteoclast is the sole cell controlling bone destruction. Pigment epithelium-derived factor(PEDF) is the strongest anti-angiogenesis factor in human body.Our team found the effect of PEDF to suppress not only angiogenesis but also osteoclast function. PEDF suppressed the osteoclast function supported by chondrosarcoma cell line. Our data suggested that PEDF was the powerful candidate of anti-chondrosarcoma agent.
