Research Abstract |
We investigated the effect of sodium butyrate (SB), one of histone deacetylase inhibitor on oral cancer cells. RNA and protein expression level of angiogenic- and lymphangiogenic-factors are assessed. Expression level of angiopoietin-2, platelet derived growth factor beta, VEGF-C, VEGF-D are downregulated by SB stimulation. These findings indicating its potential use in anti-angiogenic and -lymphangiogenic cancer therapy. Interestingly, agiogenic factor VEGF-A and transcription regulator COX-2 are upregulated. Now, we investigated detail of the mechanism.
