Antiangiogenic Effect of Ethanol Extract of Vigna angularis via Inhibition of Phosphorylation of VEGFR2, Erk, and Akt

EVA abrogates VEGF induced tube formation in HUVECs. (a) Matrigel (250 μL) was added to 24-well plates and allowed to solidify for 1 h at 37°C. HUVECs (1 10⁵ cells/well) were treated with 10 and 20 μg/mL of EVA in the presence or absence of VEGF (50 ng/mL) and incubated at 37°C. After 18 h, randomly chosen fields were photographed under an Axiovert S 100 light microscope. (b) Bar graph represents the quantification of tube formation of untreated control or VEGF-treated control and EVA-treated groups. Data are presented as means ± SD. versus VEGF-treated group.
