Abstract:
Aim. To evaluate the variations of vascular endothelial growth factor and pigment epithelium-derived factor balance as a prognostic factor for diabetic retinopathy progression after phacoemulsification. Methods. The study analyzed 4 samples of tear fluid taken from 2 patients (2 examples per patient). Clinical and functional tests, such as visual acuity test, tonometry, refractometry, visual field test, biomicroscopy, direct ophthalmoscopy, immunoassay, optical coherence tomography, fluorescein angiography, were performed. Clinical and laboratory parameters of homeostasis, including tear concentration of vascular endothelial growth factor and pigment epithelium-derived factor, blood glycosylated hemoglobin level were examined before and after phacoemulsification. Dynamic ophthalmologic control of diabetic retinopathy clinical course was performed. Results. The concentration of pro-angiogenic vascular endothelial growth factor was noted in both cases after the surgery. Hence, in one patient its growth (375 pg/ml before surgery, 467 pg/ml after surgery) exceeded the changes of pigment epithelium-derived factor concentration (2.08 ng/ml before surgery, 1.6 ng/ml after surgery). The progression risk index was estimated as 1.245 for vascular endothelial growth factor and 0.77 for pigment epithelium-derived factor. In second patient, vascular endothelial growth factor also increased after surgery, although, it’s increase (from 335 pg/ml before surgery to 358 pg/ml after surgery) was similar to pigment epithelium-derived factor change (2.15 ng/ml before surgery, 2.02 ng/ml after surgery). The progression risk index in second patient was estimated as 1.07 for vascular endothelial growth factor and 0.94 for pigment epithelium-derived factor. These changes allowed to predict pro-angiogenic potential increase and progression of vascular damage from diabetic retinopathy, in first patient. The second patient had stable balance of pro- and anti-angiogenic factors, allowing to predict a favorable clinical course. Conclusion. The change in vascular endothelial growth factor and pigment epithelium-derived factor ratio over time may be used as a prognostic factor for diabetic retinopathy progression after phacoemulsification.

Abstract:
Oestrogens and androgens play important roles in normal and cancerous tissue and have been shown to negatively regulate pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) expression in sex hormone-responsive tumours. PEDF suppresses tumour growth and its downregulation by oestrogen is implicated in tumorigenesis, metastasis, and progression. PEDF expression is reduced in cancerous tissue of the prostate, breast, ovary, and endometrium compared to their normal tissue counterparts, with a link between PEDF downregulation and sex hormone signalling observed in pre-clinical studies. PEDF reduces growth and metastasis of tumour cells by promoting apoptosis, inhibiting angiogenesis, increasing adhesion, and reducing migration. PEDF may also prevent treatment resistance in some cancers by downregulating oestrogen receptor signalling. By interacting with components of the tumour microenvironment, PEDF counteracts the proliferative and immunosuppressive effects of oestrogens, to ultimately reduce tumorigenesis and metastasis. In this review, we focus on sex hormone regulation of PEDF’s anti-tumour action in sex hormone-responsive tumours.

Abstract:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), one of the most common female endocrine disorder, is a prevalent cause of infertility. Hyperandrogenism is a key feature in PCOS and is correlated with increased expression of VEGF and cytokines in the ovaries. We have previously shown that pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), an endogenous protein, presents potent anti-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory activities in the ovary and negates the effects of cytokines and VEGF. Additionally, PEDF plays a role in both pathophysiology and treatment of ovarian-hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), frequently seen in PCOS patients. We established hyperandrogenic-PCOS models, both in vivo, using mice exposed prenatally to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and, in vitro, using human primary granulosa cells (hpGCs) and human granulosa cell line (KGN). In PCOS-induced mice, the mRNA levels of I l-6, V egf and Amh were higher than those of control; yet, treatment with rPEDF decreased these levels. Moreover, treating OHSS-induced PCOS-mice with rPEDF alleviated all OHSS symptoms. Stimulation of hpGCs with DHT resulted in downregulation of PEDF mRNA expression, concomitantly with a significant increase in IL-6 and IL-8 mRNAs expression. However, co-stimulation of DHT with rPEDF attenuated the increase in cytokines expression. The anti-inflammatory effect of PEDF was found to be mediated via PPARγ pathway. Our findings suggest that rPEDF treatment may normalize the ovarian angiogenic-inflammatory imbalance, induced by PCOS-associated hyperandrogenism. Moreover, the therapeutic potency of PEDF in preventing OHSS symptomes offers a rationale for using PEDF as novel physiological treatment for PCOS sequels.

Abstract:
Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is one of the serine protease inhibitors with multifunctional properties, which is produced by various types of organs and tissues. There is an accumulating body of evidence that PEDF plays an important role in the maintenance of tissue homeostasis. Indeed, PEDF not only works as an endogenous inhibitor of angiogenesis, but also suppresses oxidative stress, inflammatory and thrombotic reactions in cell culture systems, animal models, and humans. Furthermore, we, along with others, have found that PEDF inhibits proliferation of, and induces apoptotic cell death in, numerous kinds of tumors. In addition, circulating as well as tumor expression levels of PEDF have been inversely associated with tumor growth and metastasis. These observations suggest that supplementation of PEDF proteins and/or enhancement of endogenous PEDF expression could be a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cancer. Therefore, in this paper, we review the effects of PEDF on diverse types of cancer, and discuss its therapeutic perspectives.

Abstract:
Objective: Recent studies have demonstrated that angiogenesis is impaired in patients with celiac disease (CD). In this study, we evaluated the levels of the novel antiangiogenic factor pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) in CD patients. Methods: Eighty-four patients were included in the study; 71 patients with CD and 13 healthy controls. In the CD patient cohort, there were 21 newly diagnosed patients, 19 with adherence to a gluten-free diet and 31 practicing no adherence to this diet. The PEDF levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Results: The data revealed that celiac patients had higher levels of PEDF than did healthy controls. PEDF levels were not significantly different among the three CD groups. Additionally, the PEDF levels were not correlated with tissue transglutaminase IgA or IgG. Conclusions: Our data indicate that PEDF levels are significantly higher in CD patients than those in the healthy controls. This result suggests that PEDF negatively affects angiogenesis in CD. Although we did not observe any differences of PEDF levels among celiac patients, additional studies including more patients could clarify this issue.

Abstract:
The physiological function of the female reproductive organs is hormonally controlled. In each cycle, the reproductive organs undergo tissue modifications that are accompanied by formation and destruction of blood vessels. Proper angiogenesis requires an accurate balance between stimulatory and inhibitory signals, provided by pro- and anti-angiogenic factors. As with many other tissues, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) appears to be one of the major pro-angiogenic factors in the female reproductive organs. Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a non-inhibitory member of the serine protease inhibitors (serpin) superfamily, possessing potent physiologic anti-angiogenic activity that negates VEGF activity. The role of PEDF in decreasing abnormal neovascularization by exerting its anti-angiogenic effect that inhibits pro-angiogenic factors, including VEGF, has been investigated mainly in the eye and in cancer. This review summarizes the function of PEDF in the reproductive system, showing its hormonal regulation and its anti-angiogenic activity. Furthermore, some pathologies of the female reproductive organs, including endometriosis, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, polycystic ovary syndrome, and others, are associated with a faulty angiogenic process. This review illuminates the role of PEDF in their pathogenesis and treatment. Collectively, we can conclude that although PEDF seems to play an essential role in the physiology and pathophysiology of the reproductive system, its full role and mechanism of action still need to be elucidated.

Abstract:
The detection of pigment-epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) in corneal tissue has allowed greater understanding of the avascularity of corneal tissue. The ability of the cornea to maintain the avascular nature of this tissue, also referred to as the angiogenic privilege of the cornea, could be partly attributed to the presence of this factor. This privilege is severely impaired by various diseases of the ocular surface associated with inflammation and infection that are often followed by neovascularisation, which compromises the transparency of the cornea and results in visual impairment. The rapidly increasing insights into the basic mechanisms controlling neovascularisation, i.e. balance of growth factor activation and enzymatic activity, has most recently led to the development of large-scale use of specific antiangiogenic agents in the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Focusing on the effects of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), the use of such agents, including bevacizumab (Avastin®), a humanised anti-VEGF monoclonal antibody originally used in the treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer, has been investigated in corneal angiogenesis. PEDF is only one of the many factors involved in ocular angiogenesis. However, although it is only a small protein, it has strong antiangiogenic actions that are expressed in the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) layer, as well as in other parts of the eye. There are specific characteristics that could designate a special role for PEDF in the regulation of avascularity in the eye. In this article, we focus on corneal angiogenesis and highlight the special features of this somewhat unexplored cytokine, outlining the current knowledge and possible role of PEDF in corneal neovascularisation.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction: We successfully identified a subset of CD11b+ monocytes expressing CX3CR1, the only receptor of fractalkine (Fkn; CX3CL1), in G-CSF mobilized peripheral blood stem cell collection (PBSC). We found that Fkn-treated CD11b+CX3CR1+ monocytes express pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) once Fkn activates Fkn/CX3CR1 signaling. PEDF is a glycoprotein, which belongs to the serpin family and involves various physiologic processes such as angiogenesis, cell proliferation, and survival. In this study, we investigate the role of PEDF and its mechanism of action in promoting angiogenesis. Materials andmethods: To mobilize mononuclear cells (MNCs) including CD11b+CX3CR1+ monocytes into peripheral blood (PB), heathy donors were subcutaneously injected with G-CSF (10μg/kg) for 5 days. Apheresis MNCs were collected from donor PB using a COBE spectra cell separator (COBE, Lakewood, CO) 5 days after daily G-CSF injection. Then, CD11b+CX3CR1+ cells were isolated with a MoFlo™ XDP Cell Sorter (Beckman Coulter, Brea, CA). Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were isolated from human cords and cultured at 37 °C in 5% CO2 on top of collagen in four different settings: (1) untreated (HUVECs alone) (2) VEGF (1ng/mL) treated HUVECs; (3) PEDF (3,30 and 300 ng/mL) treated HUVECs; (4) VEGF (1ng/mL)+PEDF (3,30 and 300 ng/mL) treated HUVECs. To assess dose-dependency, PEDF was administered at different dosages (0, 3, 30 and 300 ng/mL) for 7 days in either the presence or absence of VEGF (1ng/mL). HUVEC growth areas were measured by image J. Results: CD11b+CX3CR1+ monocytes were found at 19.6±3.58% of total MNCs in human G-CSF mobilized PBSC. Fractalkine treatment (50ng/mL for 30 minutes) of these monocytes promoted endothelial cell proliferation of HUVECs and increased PEDF expression according to the angiogenic protein array results. Administration of PEDF inhibitor significantly decreased HUVEC proliferation and vascular structure formation compared to the control group (p <0.001). We further investigated pro-angiogenic effects of PEDF on HUVEC proliferation. In PEDF (3,30 and 300 ng/mL) treated HUVECs, PEDF itself has minimal effect on HUVEC proliferation. However, EC sprouting at the edge of vessel-like structures was greater in the 3 and 30 ng/mL. Interestingly, there was no EC sprouting with 300 ng/mL PEDF. PEDF (3 and 30 ng/mL) itself showed little effect on HUVEC proliferation. However, co-culturing with VEGF (1ng/mL) and low PEDF concentrations (3 and 30 ng/mL) significantly increased EC proliferation (EC proliferation area (mm2), 1.7±0.4 (VEGF only) vs 3.0±0.6 (VEGF+3 ng/mL PEDF) and 2.5±1.1 (VEGF+30 ng/mL PEDF); p=0.002 and 0.048, respectively). Higher concentration of PEDF did not induced EC proliferation even in the presence VEGF (1.7±0.4 (VEGF only) vs 1.5±0.9 (VEGF+300 ng/mL PEDF); p=0.192). The results suggest that low concentrations of PEDF (3 and 30 ng/mL) has no effect on HUVEC proliferation, but has a potent effect on HUVEC migration regardless of VEGF activity. PEDF is not pro-angiogenic by itself, but can markedly enhance HUVEC proliferation in PEDF (3 and 30 ng/mL) treated HUVECs with VEGF. Conclusion: Fractalkine-treated CD11b+CX3CR1+ monocytes promote angiogenesis by increasing PEDF expression, which acts as a pro-angiogenic factor only under conditions where VEGF is present.
