Abstract: Objective To analyze the mechanism of pigment epithelium?derived factor(PEDF)regulation in lung cancer cell proliferation and migration by vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF). Methods VEGF expression was observed after overexpression or silencing of PEDF. Proliferation and migration were analyzed by MTT and transwell assays. Real?time PCR and Western blotting were performed to investigate the mechanism underlying PEDF regulation of the VEGF/SRC/FAK pathways. Results PEDF could inhibit the proliferation and migration of A549 cells by VEGF. Conclusion PEDF can be considered as a potential therapeutic target for lung cancer.
