Given that S1P cause cell survival, proliferation, migration and angiogenesis, we hypothesized that S1P play critical roles in cancer progression.
This finding, made by two scientists from TSRI, may lead to new therapies, as abnormal angiogenesis is the leading cause of vision loss in the United States.
These inflammatory cytokines have also been shown to cause cancer to spread (metastasize) to other organs, 9 result in further inflammation, and even cause tumors to increase their blood supply (angiogenesis).10 This in itself creates somewhat of a (free - range pastured) chicken versus the egg argument in terms of whether inflammation causes cancer or cancer causes inflammation.
The chronically stressed mice had decreased immune function and experienced tumor development significantly earlier than the non-stressed mice.16 Other mouse studies of ovarian cancer showed that chronic stress resulted in increased cancer growth as well as increased angiogenesis, the process with which cancer forms new blood vessels to feed itself nutrients for growth and metastases.17 Chronic stress has also been shown to decrease our body's ability to mount an attack against foreign invaders, including viruses.18 As we know that several viruses can cause cancer (HPV and cervical cancer, and EBV and nasopharyngeal cancer), we can extrapolate that any decrease in immune function could increase cancer risk.
