Article Title: ANGPTL4 accelerates ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma carcinogenesis and angiogenesis in the tumor microenvironment by activating the JAK2/STAT3 pathway and interacting with ESM1
doi: 10.1186/s12967-023-04819-8
Figure Lengend Snippet: ESM1 inhibits ANGPTL4 binding to integrin α5β1 and VE-cadherin, which represses HUVEC proliferation and migration to induce vascular permeability in the tumor microenvironment. A Co-IP showed that ESM1 inhibited ANGPTL4 binding to α5β1 and VE-cadherin in HUVECs cultured with HeyA8 and SKOV3 cells, respectively. The effect of vector, ANGPTL4, ANGPTL4 + ESM1, ANGPTL4 KD, and ANGPTL4 KD + ESM1 on HUVECs cultured with Hey-A8 and SKOV3 cell lipid levels and proliferation ability via oil red O staining ( B ), MTT ( C ) and EdU ( D ) analysis. The migration ability was measured by wound healing ( F ) and Transwell assays ( G ) in HUVECs cultured with Hey-A8 and SKOV3 cells transfected with vector, ANGPTL4, ANGPTL4 + ESM1, ANGPTL4 KD, and ANGPTL4 KD + ESM1. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
