摘要
Anti-angiogenesis is one of the most general clinical obstacles in cancer chemotherapy. Kaempferol is a flavonoid phytochemical found in many fruits and vegetables. Our previous study revealed that kaempferol triggered apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by ROS-mediated p53/ATM/death receptor signaling. However, the anti-angiogenic potential of kaempferol remains unclear and its underlying mechanism warranted further exploration in VEGF-stimulated HUVECs. In the present study, kaempferol significantly reduced VEGF-stimulated HUVEC viability. Kaempferol treatment also inhibited cell migration, invasion, and tube formation in VEGF-stimulated HUVECs. VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2), and its downstream signaling cascades (such as AKT, mTOR and MEK1/2-ERK1/2) were reduced as determined by western blotting and kinase activity assay in VEGF-stimulated HUVECs after treatment with kaempferol. The present study revealed that kaempferol may possess angiogenic inhibition through regulation of VEGF/VEGFR-2 and its downstream signaling cascades (PI3K/AKT, MEK and ERK) in VEGF-stimulated endothelial cells.
