          Abstract

          We have found that the deoxypodophyllotoxin-5-fluorouracil conjugate, 4'-O-demethyl-4-deoxyppodophyllotoxin-4'-yl 4-((6-(2-(5-fluorouracil-yl)acetamido) hexyl)amino)-4-oxobutanoate (C069), possessed superior cytotoxicities and less toxicity compared with etoposide. In this paper, the anti-angiogenic and vascular disrupting activities of C069 were examined with several in vitro and in vivo models. First, we demonstrated that C069 significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, tube formation and disrupted the formed tube-like structures of HUVE cells, and inhibited angiogenesis in chicken chorioallantoic membrane assay. Furthermore, we found that C069 inhibited tube formation of HUVE cells by down-regulating the MMP-2, MMP-9, and phosphorylation of Akt and β-catenin. These results provided the initial evidence that C069 exerts potent anti-angiogenic and vascular disrupting effects.
