Physiological levels of tumstatin, a fragment of collagen IV α3 chain, are generated by MMP-9 proteolysis and suppress angiogenesis via αVβ3 integrin

We demonstrate a physiological role for tumstatin, a cleavage fragment of the α3 chain of type IV collagen (Col IVα3), which is present in the circulation. Mice with a genetic deletion of Col IVα3 show accelerated tumor growth associated with enhanced pathological angiogenesis, while angiogenesis as...
