The antiangiogenic property of this molecule is important because tumor growth inhibition induced by TasQ was associated with reduced microvasculature density, increased expression, and secretion of the angiogenesis inhibitor thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), and downregulation of VEGF and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF) [150]. The gene discussed is THBS1; the disease is neoplasm.
