| Abstract | Chondrosarcoma is a primary bone tumor with a dismal prognosis; most patients with this disease develop fatal pulmonary metastases, suggesting the need for a better systemic treatment. Anti-angiogenesis treatment may be useful, because angiogenesis is critical for both tumor growth and metastasis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the most potent pro-angiogenic factor and is regulated by pathways related to the normal physiologic response to hypoxia and genetic alterations related to the malignant phenotype. Our prior work has shown that VEGF is overexpressed in high grade chondrosarcoma and chondrosarcoma cell lines. Working on the premise that developmental pathways giving a selective growth advantage are often recapitulated in tumors, we investigated the regulation of VEGF by HDAC4 and Runx2 in chondrosarcoma. We tested the hypothesis that there is dysregulation of HDAC4/Runx2/VEGF gene expression and that decreased HDAC4 expression accounts for at least some of the increased VEGF expression seen in chondrosarcoma. We show that reduced expression of HDAC4 in chondrosarcoma cells increases expression of Runx2 leading to increased expression of VEGF and in vitro angiogenesis. Thus, both hypoxia and dysregulated expression of a developmental pathway are causes of increased VEGF expression in chondrosarcoma. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
