However, the effect of ATRA on angiogenesis of glioma re- mains poorly understood. We examined the effect of ATRA on the expression of vascular endothelial growth fac- tor (VEGF) in different glioma cell lines and investigated the underlying mechanism, intending to partially reveal the effects of ATRA on angiogenesis of glioma. Glioma cells were treated by ATRA at 5 and 10 μmol/L. The VEGF mRNA transcript levels were determined by real-time RT-PCR and the protein levels of VEGF in glioma cells were evaluated by Western blotting assays. Moreover, hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-la) mRNA expression was analyzed by using real-time RT-PCR. After treatment with 5 and 10 μmol/L ATRA, the VEGF mRNA tran- script levels in glioma cells increased remarkably, compared with that in the control group, and the relative protein expression of VEGF was also up-regulated. Meanwhile, the HIF-la mRNA expression also increased. ATRA in- creases the expression of VEGF in glioma cells at both transcriptional and translational levels.展开更多
