   Abstract

Angiogenesis is an essential step in initial tumor development and metastasis. Consequently, compounds that inhibit angiogenesis would be useful in treating cancer. A variety of anti-tumor effects mediated by 1{alpha}, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 have been reported, one of which is anti-angiogenesis; however, detailed mechanisms remain unclear. We have demonstrated that 1{alpha}, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 inhibits prostate cancer cell-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cell migration and tube formation, two critical steps involved in the angiogenesis. An angiogenesis factor, interleukin-8, secreted from prostate cancer cell was suppressed by 1{alpha}, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 at both mRNA and protein levels. Mechanistic dissection found that 1{alpha}, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 inhibits NF-{kappa}B signal, one of the most important interleukin-8 upstream regulators. The 1{alpha}, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-mediated NF-{kappa}B signal reduction was shown to result from the blocking of nuclear translocation of p65, a subunit of the NF-{kappa}B complex, and was followed by attenuation of the NF-{kappa}B complex binding to DNA. The role of interleukin-8 in prostate cancer progression was further examined by prostate cancer tissue microarray analyses. We found that interleukin-8 expression was elevated during prostate cancer progression, which suggests interleukin-8 may play a role in tumor progression mediated through its stimulation on angiogenesis. These findings indicate that 1{alpha}, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 could prevent prostate cancer progression by interrupting interleukin-8 signaling, which is required in tumor angiogenesis, and thus applying vitamin D in the prostate cancer treatment may be beneficial for controlling disease progression.
