基质金属蛋白酶与肺癌转移的关系

基质金属蛋白酶(matrix metalloproteinases，MMPs)是一组锌离子依赖的蛋白水解酶，在ECM降解中起着重要作用。目前研究表明，MMPs活性异常不仅能促进肿瘤血管形成，还是人类多种肿瘤侵袭和转移的必要条件。本文就与肺癌侵袭和转移有关的MMPs研究作一综述。     

肝癌患者血清P-选择素测定及临床意义

目的：研究肝癌患血清P-selection(P-sel)在肝癌复发和转移中的作用。方法：采用ELISA法分别测定原发性肝癌患和对照组血清P-选择素的含量，同时测定AFP含量。结果：肝癌患P-sel含量显高于正常人，且与AFP含量呈线性正相关，术后2周浓度降低；P-sel含量以Ⅰ、Ⅲ和Ⅳ期肝癌患显高于Ⅰ期患；且大肝癌患显高于小肝癌患，有癌栓组、有肝内转移组明显高于无癌栓组和无转移组。结论：P-选择素测定在原发性肝癌的诊断和检测术后复发方面有重要价值，联合检测AFP和sP-sel可提高诊断敏感性。     

Antimetastatic Activity of Polymeric RGDT Peptides Conjugated with Poly(ethylene glycol)

Polymeric peptides containing defined repetitive or cyclic structures of RGDT sequence, (RGDT)_n (n = 1 to 11) and cyclo(RGDT)_n (n=2 to 4), at a dose of 500 μg exhibited an inhibitory effect on experimental lung metastasis upon co-injection with tumor cells and the magnitude of the effect increased in parallel with the increase of degree of repetition of the RGDT sequence. The conjugation of (RGDT)_n (n = 1, 5, 11) with poly(ethylene glycol), PEG as a polymeric carrier led to enhanced inhibition of lung metastasis in proportion to the degree of RGDT sequence repetition and in a dose-dependent manner. Multiple i.v. administrations of PEG-(RGDT)₁₁, at 2-day and 3-day intervals before the excision of primary tumors, effectively inhibited spontaneous lung metastasis by s.c. inoculation of tumors, whereas (RGDT)₁₁ exhibited inhibition of lung metastasis only when given at 2-day intervals. This indicates that the conjugation of PEG with (RGDT)_n allowed the prolongation of administration interval, implying a sustained inhibitory effect on tumor metastasis. In support of this supposition, a decrease in the arrest of radiolabeled tumor cells in the lungs was observed when PEG-(RGDT)₁₁ was co-injected i.v. with tumor cells, or injected i.v. one day before tumor inoculation. In contrast, (RGDT)₁₁ significantly inhibited the tumor cell arrest in the lungs only upon co-injection with tumor cells. We also noted that (RGDT)_n, cyclo(RGDT)_n and PEG-(RGDT)₁₁ inhibited tumor cell invasion into Matrigel in a concentration-dependent manner and in proportion to the degree of RGDT sequence repetition, indicating that the peptide-mediated antimetastatic effect is partly associated with the anti-invasive potential. Thus, the conjugation of anti-cell adhesive and antimetastatic RGDT peptide with PEG might provide a therapeutically promising basis for the prevention of cancer metastasis (“anti adhesion therapy”).

Inhibitory effects of adhesion oligopeptides on the invasion of squamous carcinoma cells with special reference to implication of αv integrins

We studied invasion-related adhesion events in vitro using three squamous carcinoma cell lines (HSC-3, poorly differentiated type; OSC-19, well-differentiated type; and KB cells, undifferentiated type). An in vitro invasion assay through matrigel in the transwell chamber revealed that HSC-3 cells were most invasive, OSC-19 cells moderately invasive and KB cells least invasive. Inhibition assay of invasion using synthetic peptides RGD, RGDV, RGDS, RGDT, IKVAV and YIGSR, showed that invasion of the three cell lines was significantly inhibited by RGDV. There were other peptides that inhibited invasion significantly including IKVAV for HSC-3, and RGDS and YIGSR for OSC-19. HSC-3 cells and OSC-19 cells adhered to fibronectin, laminin, vitronectin, and type IV collagen, and KB cells did not adhere to laminin but did to fibronectin, vitronectin and collagen type IV. Pretreatment of cells with RGDV peptide in the attachment assay reduced the ability of these cells to bind to vitronectin and fibronectin more efficiently than pretreatment with RGDS. Anti-v antibodies inhibited adhesion of HSC-3, OSC-19 and KB cells to vitronectin, but anti-1 antibodies did not inhibit adhesion. Immunofluorescent microscopic examinations showed that all cell lines were positive for anti-5 and anti-v antibodies, and only HSC-3 cells were positive for anti-3 antibody. 51 was not clearly demonstrated in any of the cell lines. RGDV was the most effective inhibitor of squamous cell carcinoma invasion among the synthetic oligopeptides used in this experiment, and it is suggested that it affects v3-and/or v5-mediated carcinoma cell invasion.Abbreviations BSA bovine serum albumin - MEM Eagle's minimal essential medium - MTT 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide - PBS phosphatebuffered saline - FITC fluorescein isothiocyanate This work supported in part by a grant from the Osaka Cancer Research Foundation
