Suppressing AgentsInhibit cell growthStimulate cell functionStimulate apoptosisInhibit blood vessel formation (angiogenesis)

DFMO as an Anti-Tumor AgentAzoxymethane-induced rat colon tumor modelinhibits tumor incidence and multiplicitydecreases cell proliferationdecreases activated ras expression NMBA-induced rat esophagus modelinhibits tumorigenesis when given before, during and after NMBAdecreases cell proliferation and increases apoptosis Human NeoplasiasBarretts esophagus; colonic polyps; oral leukoplakia; uterine cervix (CIN 3)
Action of COX Enzymes
Inhibitors of COX ActivityNSAIDsAspirin, Indomethacin, Ibuprofen, NaproxenEffective chemoprevention agents in rodent skin, breast and colon tumor modelsAspirin may be effective as a prevention agent in human esophageal cancer Selective COX-2 inhibitorsCelecoxib, Rofecoxib and othersAnimal studies indicate that these agents are as effective and better tolerated than NSAIDs
COX Activity and Human CancersHuman BreastElevated COX-2 activity is seen in tumorsNSAID use is associated with reduction in susceptibility to breast cancer (Robertson, Harris)Human ColonColon polyps have elevated COX-2 activityTreatment of FAP patients with Celecoxib leads to polyp regression
Transcription factors
Transcription Factors and TumorigenicityAP-1Regulates transcription of genes involved in cell proliferation, differentiation and modulation of extracellular matrix Elevated AP-1 activity is causally related to tumor promotion and progression in the mouse skin modelAgents that inhibit AP-1 activity, such as retinoids, are effective chemoprevention agents in this modelThe role of altered AP-1 activity in other epithelial tumors is unknown at present
Transcription Factors and TumorigenicityNFkBElevated activity seen in mouse skin modelElevated in human Barretts esophagus and esophageal cancersIn cell culture models, elevated NFkB activity correlates with increased resistance to apoptosisSelective inhibitors of NFkB activity are unavailable at present
Tumor AngiogenesisNeovascularization is essential for sustained tumor growth as well as establishment of metastases.Anti-angiogenesis factors include endostatin, a product of plasminogen, that inhibits new vessel growth in tumor xenografts in mice. Endostatin is presently being evaluated in human clinical trials for its efficacy against metastatic disease.
