Celecoxib and octreotide synergistically inhibited angiogenesis via p-ERK–HIF-1α–VEGF. Cele + Oct or AZD could significantly reduce the migration rate (a, c) and tube formation (b, d) compared with DMSO-treated HUVEC cells. The VEGF mRNA (e) and protein (f, g) p-ERK (f, h), HIF-1α protein (h) determined by immunofluorescence, and qRT-PCR and Western blot were also abolished by Cele, Oct, Cele + Oct or AZD. ChIP assay was to determine HIF-1α binding to VEGF promoter region (i). AZD, MEK inhibitor AZD6244. # p < 0.05 versus DMSO. *p < 0.05 versus Cele + Oct
