1 Therapeutic Regulation of Plaque Angiogenesis in Atherosclerosis: Pros and Cons Karen Moulton, M.D. Dept. of Medicine, Cardiology University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus Learning Objectives: 1. Functions of neovascularization in atherosclerotic plaques: evidence and hypotheses. 2. Endogenous regulators of neovascularization in atherosclerotic plaques 3. Rationale for selective regulation plaque neovascularization. Disclosure: Sponsored research grant to test effects of VEGF164 aptamer on atherosclerosis in mice.
2 Functions of Plaque Neovascularization Promote atheroma growth: Werber, Atherosclerosis (1987). Moulton K, Circulation (1999). Khurana R, Circulation (2004).

Wolinsky, Circ Res (1967) Vessel wall perfusion: microsphere measures of flow, vasoactive changes in flow, compressive forces of artery wall.: Heistad DD, Circulation Res. (1981).

6 Angiogenesis and Chronic Inflammation are Linked Mononuclear cells in plaque neovascularization. mice (Moulton, Circ (1999) Human (Daemen JACC (2009). Permeability: Vessels have limited pericytes. Some have abnormal junctions basement membranes and membrane blebs. (Sluimer et al JACC (2009). ApoE EC and various leukocytes share receptors for various angiogenesis factors
7 Vulnerable Plaque: Intraplaque hemorrhage is not the only potential mechanism ESC position paper on stabilisation of atherosclerotic plaques. Thromb Haemo (2011). Diverse mechanisms: cap rupture, erosions, bleeding. Diverse mechanisms of stabilization - cholesterol reduction (AngT, neovascularization, inflammatory pathways?) Role of intraplaque hemorrhage in evolution of some vulnerable plaque morphologies.
8 Title change: The question is not whether plaque neovascularization should be modified, but how it should be modified. Anti-angiogenesis agents are in widespread clinical use as standard treatments for cancer and macular degeneration. Patients with existing atherosclerosis (known and unknown) ARE receiving them. Neovascularization remodels autonomously during physiologic growth, wound healing and inflammation. Intervene on major active molecular pathways. Different goals for treatment: permeability, normalization, means for targeting specific vascular beds. Modification Regression!
9 Endogenous Regulators of Plaque Angiogenesis I. Angiogenesis stimulators in atheromas. VEGF-A (VEGF164) is major angiogenesis activity in atheromas VEGF164 and its receptors. (ATVB 2009) II. III. IV. Endogenous inhibitors in normal arteries that are depleted by atherosclerosis and vascular inflammation. Collagen XVIII (and proteolytic endostatin domain). Moulton et al. Circ (2004) and Zeng et al. JLR (2005). Other candidates: Collagen IV, fibulin-5, elastin and perlecan have cryptic anti-angiogenesis molecules that are depleted by atherosclerosis. Replacement therapy to restore a normal artery wall component. Diabetes. Moulton (unpublished 2010) Plaque angiogenesis is induced by T1D and accelerates atherosclerosis. Hypoxia-related transcription factors or metabolic stress. Sluimer & Daemen J Path (2009)

14 Effects of VEGF164 Aptamer Treatment: Control Tx mice Inhibited plaque angiogenesis (indirect effect). VEGF164 antagonist reduced macrophages in atheromas. Matrigel plugs containing hvegf165, bfgf or no growth factors were implanted 2 weeks before the end of treatment. V164 aptamer mice developed 88% and 52% reduced vessel areas compared to controls.

21 Future Goals of Neovascular Therapy I. Cancer and Macular Degeneration: chronic treatments Targets beyond growth factors and receptors. Combined agents for synergy: tumor vessels normalize and facilitate efficacy of XRT and chemo. II. Plaque Angiogenesis: Target beyond growth factor and receptors Treatment duration? Microvascular versus large vessel endothelium CV goals might reduce permeability, leukocyte adhesion and recruitment Therapy may require selective targeting or lower doses.
