Inhibition of tumor angiogenesis by globotriaosylceramide immunotargeting
Current antiangiogenic immunotherapeutic strategies mainly focus on the blockade of circulating cytokines or receptors that are overexpressed by endothelial cells. We proposed globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) as a viable alternative target for antiangiogenic therapies. In this setting, we developed an an...

Summary: | Current antiangiogenic immunotherapeutic strategies mainly focus on the blockade of circulating cytokines or receptors that are overexpressed by endothelial cells. We proposed globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) as a viable alternative target for antiangiogenic therapies. In this setting, we developed an anti-Gb3 antibody and validated its therapeutic efficacy in metastatic tumor models. |
