| Abstract | During angiogenesis, endothelial cells react to stimulation with finely tuned signaling responses. The role of calcium-regulated signaling in angiogenesis has not been defined. This study investigated the calcium dependency of endothelial cell proliferation and invasion by using an inhibitor of ligand-stimulated calcium influx, CAI (carboxy-amidotriazole). Incubation with CAI significantly inhibited proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in response to serum (IC50 = 1 microM) or basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2; P2 < 0.005 at 10 microM). Statistically significant inhibition of HUVEC adhesion and motility to basement membrane proteins laminin, fibronectin, and type IV collagen was demonstrated (adhesion, P2 < 0.004-0.01; motility, P2 < 0.009-0.018). Marked inhibition of native and FGF2-induced gelatinase activity was shown by zymogram analysis and was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. CAI inhibited HUVEC tube formation on Matrigel and inhibited in vivo angiogenesis in the chicken chorioallantoic membrane assay, 67% at 20 microM and 56% at 10 microM compared with 16% for an inactive CAI analog or 9% for 0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide control. Incubation of HUVECs with CAI and/or FGF2 followed by immunoprecipitation with anti-phosphotyrosine antibody showed inhibition of FGF2-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins in the range 110-150 kDa. These results suggest that calcium-regulated events are important in native and FGF2-stimulated HUVEC proliferation and invasion, perhaps through regulation of FGF2-induced phosphorylation events, and indicate a role for calcium in the regulation of angiogenesis in vivo. |

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.
