Antiangiogenesis is an efficient therapy for eliminating colon cancers, but because of recurrence it remains only palliative. We hypothesized that certain populations of tumor cells resist antiangiogenesis-induced apoptosis and explored the underlying mechanism. We demonstrated that the CD133+ population of cells in colon cancer is resistant to anti-angiogenesis therapy. Additionally, we identified an anti-apoptotic signaling pathway responsible for this resistance involving PP2A, p38MAPK, MAPKAPK2, and Hsp27. Thus, this pathway may offer a new avenue to develop target therapy for colorectal cancer.
► CD133+ and spheroid culture-enriched TICs survive from anti-angiogenesis therapy.
► CD133+ and spheroid culture-enriched TICs survive from in vivo vessel ablation.
► Inhibition of Hsp27 signaling sensitizes TICs to vessel ablation-induced apoptosis.
► Inhibiting Hsp27 reduces tumor size when combining with anti-angiogenesis therapy.
► TICs activate p38MAPK-MAPKAPK2-Hsp27 via suppression of PP2A to inhibit apoptosis.
