Previous studies suggest that upregulated basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) plays a key role in the resistance to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy in glioma. This study reported that anti-VEGF treatment regulated bFGF secretion in a double-edged manner. That is, moderate VEGF neutralization reduced bFGF production, whereas VEGF overblocking enhanced bFGF secretion in glioma cells. Our data provide a new perspective on the treatment of glioma with anti-VEGF, and the underlying mechanism is worthy of further study.
先前的研究表明,上调的碱性成纤维细胞生长因子(bFGF)在脑胶质瘤对抗血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)治疗的耐药性中起着关键作用。本研究报道抗 VEGF 治疗以一种双刃剑的方式调节 bFGF 的分泌。也就是说,适度的 VEGF 中和减少了 bFGF 的产生,而 VEGF 过度阻断则增强了脑胶质瘤细胞中 bFGF 的分泌。我们的数据为抗 VEGF 治疗脑胶质瘤提供了一个新的视角,其潜在机制值得进一步研究。
