Resumo(s): | Fucoidan is a marine-origin sulfated polysaccharide that can show anticancer activity, to which both pro- and anti-angiogenic responses have been reported. Due to this unpredictability, the angiogenic potential of an effective anticancer crude fucoidan (CF), at a concentration of 0.5 mg mL−1 , was evaluated. Tube formation assays demonstrated that CF, either administered while endothelial cells seeding or after their adhesion, migration and organization, inhibited or disrupted the formation of tubular-like structures, respectively. Although CF did not significantly reduced vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) secretion, it significantly reduced the expression of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), compromising the blood vessels maturation. Two chicken embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assays were performed: one without tumor (CAM I) and the other with an onplanted tumor mass (CAM II); the CF injection reduced the number of blood of vessels and significantly decreased the tumor size, respectively. In vitro and in vivo results support the effectiveness of fucoidan as a natural antitumor therapeutic agent. |
