Abstract
Propranolol, a nonselective β-adrenergic receptor (ADRB) antagonist, is the first-line therapy for severe infantile hemangiomas (IH). Since the incidental discovery of propranolol efficacy in IH, preclinical and clinical investigations have shown evidence of adjuvant propranolol response in some malignant tumors. However, the mechanism for propranolol antitumor effect is still largely unknown, owing to the absence of a tumor model responsive to propranolol at nontoxic concentrations. Immunodeficient mice engrafted with different human tumor cell lines were treated with anti-VEGF bevacizumab to create a model sensitive to propranolol. Proteomics analysis was used to reveal propranolol-mediated protein alteration correlating with tumor growth inhibition, and Aquaporin-1 (AQP1), a water channel modulated in tumor cell migration and invasion, was identified. IH tissues and cells were then functionally investigated. Our functional protein association networks analysis and knockdown of ADRB2 and AQP1 indicated that propranolol treatment and AQP1 down-regulation trigger the same pathway, suggesting that AQP1 is a major driver of beta-blocker antitumor response. Examining AQP1 in human hemangioma samples, we found it exclusively in a perivascular layer, so far unrecognized in IH, made of telocytes (TCs). Functional in vitro studies showed that AQP1-positive TCs play a critical role in IH response to propranolol and that modulation of AQP1 in IH-TC by propranolol or shAQP1 decreases capillary-like tube formation in a Matrigel-based angiogenesis assay. We conclude that IH sensitivity to propranolol may rely, at least in part, on a cross talk between lesional vascular cells and stromal TCs.

Int J Dermatol 2021; 60:1263-1269. [PMID: 33959962 DOI: 10.1111/ijd.15640] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2021] [Revised: 03/26/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of infantile hemangioma (IH) is not fully understood. It has been suggested that angiogenic factors increase in the proliferative stage, decreasing subsequently in the regression phase. OBJECTIVES To evaluate vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) levels, according to infantile hemangioma (IH) growth stages and size, and to compare these levels in patients with IH and control subjects. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 68 patients with IH and 25 control subjects. Plasma and urinary MMP-9 and VEGF levels were evaluated during proliferative and regression phases. These levels were correlated with tumor size measured by ultrasonography. Nonparametric tests were performed. RESULTS Among 68 patients with IH, 55 (81%) were female. Age ranged from 1 to 40 months (median 7.0 months). There was no difference in plasma and urinary levels of VEGF and MMP-9 between patients and control subjects. There were no significant differences in these levels between IH patients younger or older than 12 months of age, as a cutoff between proliferative and involution phases. No significant correlation was observed between tumor size and levels of the markers (R < 0.20 and P > 0.05 for all comparisons). CONCLUSION In our large sample, levels of VEGF and MMP-9 did not reflect the characteristic increased angiogenesis in patients with IH when compared to healthy subjects. In addition, these markers were not increased in the proliferative stage of the IH and did not correlate with tumor size.

Serum cytokine profiles in infants with infantile hemangiomas on oral propranolol treatment: VEGF and bFGF, potential biomarkers predicting clinical outcomes. Pediatr Res 2020; 88:749-755. [PMID: 32311699 DOI: 10.1038/s41390-020-0862-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/20/2019] [Revised: 02/13/2020] [Accepted: 03/04/2020] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Oral propranolol has become first-line treatment for infantile hemangiomas (IHs). This study focused on identifying cytokines related to the biology of IH and early regression indicators of IH after propranolol treatment. METHODS For inclusion, the patients had to be aged less than 1 year and have an IH with a largest diameter ≥2 cm. Patients were scheduled to receive 1 year of propranolol treatment. Serum cytokines involved in angiogenesis, vasculogenesis, and/or chronic inflammation were analyzed at 0, 1, and/or 12 months after treatment using Multiplex Luminex assays. RESULTS Among the 49 evaluable patients, 33 completed the 1-year treatment: 16 showed excellent response and 12 had good response to propranolol. Significant decreases in serum MMP-2, bFGF, VEGF-α, and MCP-1 levels were observed after 1 year of treatment compared to pretreatment values. The maximal diameters of the lesions significantly correlated with pretreatment serum VEGF-α, bFGF, and MMP-9. Patients with higher bFGF and VEGF levels showed better response to propranolol at 1 year. CONCLUSION MMP-2, VEGF-α, bFGF, and MCP-1 may involve in the biology of IH and their downregulation may be associated with involution processes of IH. Pretreatment bFGF and VEGF could be novel biomarkers for predicting response to propranolol. IMPACT We found that decreases in the concentrations of MMP-2, bFGF, VEGF, and MCP-1 were associated with regression of the hemangioma, which indicates that one of the mechanisms of propranolol in the treatment of proliferative hemangiomas may involve downregulation of those cytokines. Patients with higher bFGF and VEGF levels showed better response to propranolol at 1 year. Importantly, serum bFGF higher than 37.07 pg/mL may predict an excellent response to propranolol. Therefore, along with the patient's age and the size and visual characteristics of the lesion, bFGF levels could help determine the viability of propranolol use in the treatment of IHs. Our study represented extensive serum profiling in IH, reporting the indicators and molecules clearly related to IH regression with propranolol treatment. The authors believe that monitoring serum cytokines, including MMP-2, bFGF, VEGF, and MCP-1, in IH patients could be important, in addition to clinical follow-up, for determining when to start and end propranolol treatment.

Abstract
Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common benign tumor of childhood, with a prevalence of 4 % to 10 %. It is characterized by a proliferative rapid growth phase, which starts after a few weeks of life, followed by a slow regression phase. In IH cases that are potentially disfiguring or life-threatening (10 % to 15 % of all cases), systemic therapy should be promptly initiated. Data source The present study reviews published scientific articles available in reliable electronic databases. Selected were all studies that evaluated the pathogenesis of IH and the mechanisms of action of propranolol. Conclusions The pathogenesis of IH has not been fully elucidated. Studies show that, in the proliferative phase of IH, there is an imbalance of angiogenic factors and an increase in the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor and matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9. In the regression phase, the levels of these factors decrease, whereas those of antiangiogenic factors, including tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases, increase. Since 2008, propranolol has become the drug of choice in the treatment of IH, targeting vascular tone, angiogenesis, and apoptosis. Current insights into the pathogenesis of IH allow for the development of new therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemangiomas are unique endothelial cell tumors that involute spontaneously, which makes interpreting their response to therapies difficult. The objective of this work was to identify a potential biomarker in the urine of children with infantile hemangiomas that would facilitate testing new therapies. METHODS A prospective longitudinal study in children with hemangiomas and age-matched healthy controls was performed to determine whether microRNA-126, which is highly abundant in fetal endothelial cells, was more abundant in the urine of affected children. Prospective ultrasound measurements of hemangioma size and blood flow velocity were obtained as secondary endpoints to document longitudinal changes in untreated hemangiomas. RESULTS Urinary microRNA-126 levels were significantly elevated in children with proliferating hemangiomas, and relative levels of urinary microRNA abundance correlated with hemangioma size. Hemangiomas had elevated levels of microRNA abundance compared with healthy controls. Ultrasound data revealed that hemangioma proliferation typically stopped between 6 and 9 months of age. When hemangioma proliferation stopped, urinary microRNA-126 levels in children with hemangiomas dropped to levels observed in healthy age-matched controls. CONCLUSIONS These are the first reported results to identify a potential microRNA biomarker in the urine of children with hemangiomas. Measurement of urinary levels of microRNA-126 could potentially be used to monitor hemangioma response to therapies. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Diagnostic, II.

Abstract
Propranolol is increasingly used to treat problematic infantile haemangioma (IH), although its molecular mechanisms remain unclear. A key feature of propranolol therapy is the decreased deposition of fibrofatty residuum compared with spontaneously involuting IH. This study investigated the molecular consequences of propranolol treatment for IH in vivo.Immunohistochemical and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labelling (TUNEL) staining was performed on five age matched patients with proliferative IH. Two patients (A and B) were undergoing propranolol treatment at the time of surgical resection.Propranolol treatment increased apoptosis, and induced mast cells to degranulate and secrete tryptase into the interstitium. The microvessels of patient A were immature [weak von Willibrand Factor (vWF), and strong osteoprotegerin (OPG) staining], comparable to untreated proliferative IH, while those of patient B were mature (strong vWF staining, and no OPG staining). The perivascular CD90 mesenchymal stem cell population was preserved in both propranolol treated patients.Using rarely obtained biopsies from IH patients treated with propranolol, we show increased apoptosis by propranolol for the first time in vivo. We also suggest that mast cells, through secreted proteases, may contribute to the decreased fibrofatty residuum seen with propranolol treatment.

Abstract
Sturge-Weber syndrome (SWS) consists of a capillary-venous vascular malformation of the brain, skin and eye. Urine vascular biomarkers have been demonstrated to be abnormal in other vascular anomalies and to correlate with clinical severity and progression. The current study investigated the use of urinary matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2, MMP-9, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) levels to non-invasively monitor the progression of SWS. Fifty-four urine samples were collected from patients seen at the Hunter Nelson Sturge-Weber Center at Kennedy Krieger Institute. Urine was analyzed for MMP-2, MMP-9, VEGF and bFGF levels and correlated with clinical outcome at the time of urine collection (n = 48) and 1 year following urine collection (n = 22). Analysis revealed that MMP-2 (p = 0.033) and MMP-9 (p = 0.010) were significantly more likely to be present in the urine of SWS subjects compared to controls and that bFGF was significantly more likely to be present at abnormal levels (p = 0.005). MMP-2 correlated with a more severe clinical score at the time of urine collection, while both MMP-2 and MMP-9 levels correlated with greater disease severity at time of collection. bFGF levels correlated with improved clinical score 1 year after urine collection. These results suggest that MMP-2 and MMP-9 levels may be useful in assessing SWS progression, as well as indicating which patients might benefit from more aggressive treatment, while bFGF levels may be useful in judging the efficacy of neurologic treatment in SWS.
