In the course of studies to discover natural products with anti-angiogenic properties, two cyclic octapeptides, octaminomycins A ( 1 ) and B ( 2 ), were isolated from the cultures of Streptomyces sp. RK85-270. Octaminomycins suppressed the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced proliferation, adhesion, tube formation, migration, and invasion of HUVECs. Anti-angiogenic activity was futher confirmed in vivo by the chicken chorioallantoic membrane assay. We also identified tha 1 and 2 inhibited the phosphorylation of VEGF receptor 2, AKT, and ERK1/2 and the expression and activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9. These results suggest tha 1 and 2 may serve as potential scaffolds for the development of therapeutic agents to angiogenesis-dependent diseases.
