The Homeobox Gene Gax Inhibits Angiogenesis through Inhibition of Nuclear Factor-κB–Dependent Endothelial Cell Gene Expression
15 Feb 2005
Abstract excerpt
The growth and metastasis of tumors are heavily dependent on angiogenesis, but much of the transcriptional regulation of vascular endothelial cell gene expression responsible for angiogenesis remains to be elucidated. The homeobox gene Gax is expressed in vascular endothelial cells and inhibits proliferation and tube formation in vitro. We hypothesized that Gax is a negative transcriptional regulator of the...
