| Abstract | Neuroblastoma is the most common pediatric abdominal tumor and principally a p53 wild-type, highly vascular, aggressive tumor, with limited response to anti-VEGF therapies alone. MDM2 is a key inhibitor of p53 and a positive activator of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) activity with an important role in neuroblastoma pathogenesis. We hypothesized that concurrent inhibition of both MDM2 and VEGF signaling would have cooperative anti-tumor effects, potentiating anti-angiogenic strategies for neuroblastoma and other p53 wild-type tumors. We orthotopically implanted SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells into nude mice (n = 40) and treated as follows: control, bevacizumab, Nutlin-3a, combination of bevacizumab plus Nutlin-3a. Expression of HIF-1α and VEGF were measured by qPCR, Western blot, and ELISA. Tumor apoptosis was measured by immunohistochemistry and caspase assay. Angiogenesis was evaluated by immunohistochemistry for vascular markers (CD-31, type-IV collagen, αSMA). Both angiogenesis and metastatic burden were digitally quantified. In vitro, Nutlin-3a suppresses HIF-1α expression with subsequent downregulation of VEGF. Bevacizumab plus Nutlin-3a leads to significant suppression of tumor growth compared to control (P < 0.01) or either agent alone. Combination treated xenograft tumors display a marked decrease in endothelial cells (P < 0.0001), perivascular basement membrane (P < 0.04), and vascular mural cells (P < 0.004). Nutlin-3a alone and in combination with bevacizumab leads to significant tumor apoptosis (P < 0.0001 for both) and significant decrease in incidence of metastasis (P < 0.05) and metastatic burden (P < 0.03). Bevacizumab plus Nutlin-3a cooperatively inhibits tumor growth and angiogenesis in neuroblastoma in vivo with dramatic effects on tumor vascularity. Concomitantly targeting VEGF and p53 pathways potently suppresses tumor growth, and these results support further clinical development of this approach. |

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.
