Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase is a potential target for anticancer therapy. ZD1839 (Iressa) is a selective inhibitor of EGFR tyrosinekinase. In this study, we investigated the question as to whether the antitumor effect of ZD1839 is partly attributable to antiangiogenic activity and the potential mechanisms involved. Both ZD1839 and SU5416 [a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor] inhibited the migration of human umbilical vein endothelial cell cocultivated with EGF-stimulated cancer cells. ZD1839 also inhibited EGF-induced migration and the formation of tube-like structures by human microvascular endothelial cells. Moreover, ZD1839 almost completely blocked EGF-induced neovascularization of mice cornea, and SU5416 partially blocked neovascularization. In contrast, ZD1839 did not inhibit VEGF-induced angiogenesis. However, EGF-induced up-regulation of the angiogenic factors, VEGF and IL-8, was almost completely blocked by ZD1839. The antitumor effects of ZD1839 could, therefore, be mediated in part by the inhibition of tumor angiogenesis through direct effects on microvascular endothelial cells that express EGFR and also through reduced production of proangiogenic factors by tumor cells.
