Extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer stimulates tumor angiogenesis by elevating vascular endothelial cell growth factor and matrix metalloproteinases 总被引:25,自引:0,他引:25

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are endopeptidases that play pivotal roles in promoting tumor disease progression, including tumor angiogenesis. In many solid tumors, MMP expression could be attributed to tumor stromal cells and is partially regulated by tumor-stroma interactions via tumor cell-associated extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN). The role of EMMPRIN during tumor angiogenesis and growth was explored by modulating EMMPRIN expression and activity using recombinant DNA engineering and neutralizing antibodies. In human breast cancer cells, changes in EMMPRIN expression influenced vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) production at both RNA and protein levels. In coculture of tumor cells and fibroblasts mimicking tumor-stroma interactions, VEGF expression was induced in an EMMPRIN- and MMP-dependent fashion, and was further enhanced by overexpressing EMMPRIN. Conversely, VEGF expression was inhibited by suppressing EMMPRIN expression in tumor cells, by neutralizing EMMPRIN activity, or by inhibiting MMPs. In vivo, EMMPRIN overexpression stimulated tumor angiogenesis and growth; both were significantly inhibited by antisense suppression of EMMPRIN. Expression of both human and mouse VEGF and MMP, derived from tumor and host cells, respectively, was regulated by EMMPRIN. These results suggest a novel tumor angiogenesis mechanism in which tumor-associated EMMPRIN functionally mediates tumor-stroma interactions and directly contributes to tumor angiogenesis and growth by stimulating VEGF and MMP expression. 相似文献

Requirement for focal adhesion kinase in tumor cell adhesion 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase and a major phosphotyrosine-containing protein. FAK is found in cell-matrix attachment sites (focal adhesions), and is activated on integrin-ligand binding and by other signaling pathways. Several roles have been proposed for FAK; here we report a novel function. We observed abundant FAK protein in all human melanoma cell lines tested except COLO839, a line that grows predominantly in suspension and was derived from peripheral blood. Five adherent lines, isolated from solid metastases in the same patient as COLO839, did express FAK. We derived four adherent sublines from COLO839. These did express FAK, even when plated on bacteriological plastic, to which they did not adhere. Thus, substrate attachment was not required for FAK expression. Three of the adherent sublines were then grown in the presence of antisense oligonucleotides to the initial FAK coding sequence. All showed substantially reduced FAK expression and, interestingly, the cells largely detached from the substrate while continuing to grow. Similar results were obtained with an independent melanoma line, DX3. Thus, FAK expression appears to be required by melanoma cells for substrate adhesion. 相似文献

Interference of tenascin-C with syndecan-4 binding to fibronectin blocks cell adhesion and stimulates tumor cell proliferation. 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

Tenascin-C is an adhesion-modulatory extracellular matrix molecule that is highly expressed in tumors. To investigate the effect of tenascin-C on tumor cells, we analyzed its antiadhesive nature and effect on tumor cell proliferation in a fibronectin context. Glioblastoma and breast carcinoma cell adhesion was compromised by a mixed fibronectin/tenascin-C substratum, which concomitantly caused increased tumor-cell proliferation. We identified the antiadhesive mechanism as a specific interference of tenascin-C with cell binding to the HepII/syndecan-4 site in fibronectin through direct binding of tenascin-C to the 13th fibronectin type III repeat (FNIII13). Cell adhesion and proliferation levels were restored by the addition of FNIII13. Overexpression of syndecan-4, but not syndecan-1 or -2, reverted the cell adhesion defect of tenascin-C. We characterized FNIII13 as the binding site for syndecan-4. Thus we describe a novel mechanism by which tenascin-C impairs the adhesive function of fibronectin through binding to FNIII13, thereby inhibiting the coreceptor function of syndecan-4 in fibronectin-induced integrin signaling. 相似文献

Fucans are sulphated polysaccharides extracted from brown seaweed, which display a wide scale of activities including inhibition of tumour cell invasion. Like several sulphated polysaccharides, they have been shown to be potent inhibitors of experimental metastasis. However, their mechanism of action is not fully understood Using standard adhesion and chemoinvasion assays, we demonstrated that fucans can inhibit MDA-MB231 cell invasion through matrigel. This effect is correlated with a direct interaction of the fucans with laminin that leads to an inhibition of cell adhesion. It depends upon the sulphate content and the molecular weight of the fucans. Moreover, chromogenic assays allowed us to bring to the fore an increase of u-PA activity in the MDA-MB231 culture medium when tests were performed in the presence of fucans. Since tumour cell adhesion is a prerequisite step in the invasion process, our results suggest that the inhibitory effect of fucans on MDA-MB231 cell invasion is caused, at least in part, by the blockage of tumour cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix and by the increase of the proteolysis of the extracellular membrane. 相似文献

Reduced focal adhesion kinase and paxillin phosphorylation in BCR-ABL-transfected cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
BACKGROUND: BCR-ABL formation is critical to oncogenic transformation in chronic myelogenous leukemia and has been implicated as a key event leading to alterations in cytoskeletal structures and adhesion in the leukemic cells. The authors therefore investigated the effect of p210(BCR-ABL) on actin polymerization as well as on the expression and phosphorylation state of the adhesion proteins paxillin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK). METHODS: Transfection with BCR-ABL constructs abrogated the ability of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts to adhere and the cells underwent striking morphologic changes. RESULTS: Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the cells lost their elongated appearance and became rounded. This alteration was associated with significantly reduced actin polymerization. In addition, steady-state levels of paxillin and FAK protein were increased. However, while the overall level of phosphotyrosines was also increased, the amount of tyrosine phosphorylated paxillin and FAK was reduced in the BCR-ABL-transfected cells as compared to the parental cells. Culture on extracellular fibronectin matrix partially reversed the morphologic changes and resulted in a return, albeit incomplete, of filamentous actin in BCR-ABL-transfected 3T3 fibroblasts. In addition, phosphorylation of paxillin and FAK in the BCR-ABL-transfected NIH 3T3 cells was restored. CONCLUSIONS: The authors conclude that, in the current system, transfection of BCR-ABL attenuates FAK and paxillin phosphorylation and reduces actin polymerization, events accompanied by significant alterations in cellular morphology. The observation that exposure of the cells to fibronectin partially reverses all these changes suggests that the focal adhesion proteins and actin structures nevertheless remain responsive to signaling from the outside. 相似文献

Extracellular matrix proteins synthesized and secreted by adherent human tumor cell lines were analyzed using metabolic labelling with glycine and proline in the presence of ascorbate, polypeptide analysis and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, affinity chromatography, collagenase digestion, and immunofluorescence staining. The results showed a characteristic pattern of matrix proteins for each tumor cell type. Tumor cell lines of mesenchymal origin produced mostly interstitial types (I and II) of collagen and fibronectin. Carcinoma cell lines secreted only basement membrane proteins, type IV collagen, laminin and fibronectin, but not interstitial collagen. A melanoma and a rhabdomyosarcoma cell line produced type V of procollagen that has not previously been described in cell culture. Neuroblastoma cells were shown to be phenotypically heterogeneous also with respect to matrix protein production. We propose that the analysis of extracellular matrix proteins may serve as an adjunct in the classification of human tumors. 相似文献

Three inhibitors of S-adenosylmethionine-mediated transmethylation, 5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA), 2'-deoxyadenosine and sinefungin, inhibited in vitro invasion by a highly invasive clone (Cl-30) of rat ascites hepatoma cells, AH 130 (AH cells). Difluoromethylthioadenosine (DFMTA), a non-metabolizable derivative of MTA, also caused strong inhibition of invasion at concentrations that did not suppress the growth of the tumor cells. Cl-30 cells precultured in methionine-depleted medium showed decreased invasiveness. DFMTA was also effective on the invasion by fibrosarcoma, B16 melanoma and human lung carcinoma cell lines. 相似文献

Cellular motility is a critical function in embryonic development, tissue repair, and tumor invasion. We used assays of scattering (epithelial colony dispersion), cell migration, and cell invasion to study cytokine-regulated motility in epithelial and carcinoma cell lines. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) stimulated motility in 12 of 14 cell lines in one or more assay systems. The motility-stimulating activity of TNF did not correlate with its antiproliferative activity. In lines whose migration was stimulated by both TNF and scatter factor (SF), a fibroblast-derived cytokine which stimulates epithelial cell motility, saturating concentrations of TNF plus SF induced greater migration than either agent alone. Anti-TNF monoclonal antibody blocked TNF- but not SF-stimulated motility. While various other factors (basic fibroblast growth factor, interleukin 6, interleukin 2, colony-stimulating factor 1) had little or not motility-stimulating activity, phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA), a tumor-promoting phorbol ester, scattered and/or stimulated migration in all cell lines studied. Combinations of saturating concentrations of TNF plus PMA or of SF plus PMA induced greater migration than did any agent alone. These findings suggest that (a) carcinoma cell motility may be mediated by multiple biochemical pathways and (b) TNF stimulates epithelial motility by a mechanism different from that of SF and PMA. In vivo, TNF might enhance invasiveness of some carcinomas or stimulate epithelial wound healing. 相似文献

Gamma linolenic acid (GLA) is an anti-cancer agent recently reported to inhibit tumour cell-matrix attachment. This study examined the effects of GLA on the adhesion of two tumour cell lines, HT115 (human colon) and MDA MB 231 (human breast), to an extracellular matrix, Matrigel. The action of GLA on focal adhesion kinase(FAK) and paxillin was also investigated. Following cell adhesion to Matrigel in control experiments, both FAK and paxillin were quickly tyrosine phosphorylated and become concentrated at focal adhesion areas. Inclusion of GLA resulted in an inhibition of the tyrosine phosphorylation of both FAK and paxillin leading to a reduced attachment of both cell types to Matrigel. FAK and paxillin were also less well distributed in the focal adhesions compared with the controls. It is concluded, therefore, that GLA inhibits tumour-matrix adhesion via the inhibition of FAK and paxillin tyrosine phosphorylation. 相似文献

Extracellular matrix destruction by invasive tumor cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Summary The invasion of normal tissues and penetration of basement membranes by malignant cells is likely to require the active participation of hydrolytic enzymes. The four major groups of connective tissue proteins, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, collagen and elastin, vary in their quantitative distributions between different tissues. With the exception of elastin, they also vary qualitatively within each class, so that there are no typical connective tissue barriers to tumor cell penetration. The matrix constituents are stabilized and organized by a variety of covalent and noncovalent interactions between the connective tissue proteins. These interactions play important roles in matrix integrity and may alter the susceptibilities of the constituents to degradative enzymes. It is likely that the complete degradation of the matrix will require the action of more than one enzyme because of differing susceptibilities to tissue proteinases. Primary and transplantable tumors produce well-characterized enzymes which may participate in invasion. These enzymes may also be involved in connective tissue turnover in other normal and pathological situations. The use of long-term tumor cell cultures has verified that tumor cells themselves are capable of producing these enzymes. However, there are many potential modulating influences opperative in vivo which are absent in culture so that details of actual mechanisms and control of digestion of complex substrates are not well understood. Recent work on the degradation by tumor cells of extracellular matrices previously produced by cultured cells is likely to shed more light on pathways of tissue destruction in vivo. Experiments with tumor cell variants of defined metastatic potentials will also be useful, but invasive and metastatic abilities are not necessarily correlated. It is unlikely that simple correlations can be drawn between the production of one particular degradative enzyme by all tumor cells and the complex biological mechanisms operative during tumor invasion. 相似文献

Thiolutin, an inhibitor of HUVEC adhesion to vitronectin, reduces paxillin in HUVECs and suppresses tumor cell-induced angiogenesis. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Recent studies have shown that integrin alpha v beta 3, a receptor for vitronectin, plays an important role in tumor-induced angiogenesis and tumor growth and that antagonists of alpha v beta 3 inhibit angiogenic processes including endothelial cell adhesion and migration. On the other hand, most inhibitors of integrin alpha v beta 3 are peptide antagonists that include the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif. We therefore reasoned that non-peptide inhibitors of endothelial cell adhesion to vitronectin might be useful for inhibition of tumor angiogenesis in vivo. We screened for low-molecular-weight natural products able to inhibit adhesion of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to vitronectin, and pyrrothine group compounds including aureothricin, thioaurin and thiolutin were isolated from microbial culture broths. Of these compounds, thiolutin inhibited adhesion of HUVECs to vitronectin the most effectively (IC(50), 0.83 microM). In vivo experiments showed that thiolutin significantly suppressed angiogenesis induced by tumor cells (S-180), a pathological form of neovascularization, in a mouse dorsal air sac assay system. To explore the mechanism of inhibition of HUVEC adhesion to vitronectin by thiolutin, we examined the effect of this agent on intracellular cell adhesion signaling. We found that the amount of paxillin in HUVECs was significantly reduced by thiolutin treatment, while those of other focal adhesion proteins including vinculin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) were not. Metabolic labeling experiments showed that thiolutin enhanced degradation of paxillin in HUVECs. Protease inhibitors (MG115 and E64-D) decreased the rate of degradation of the paxillin induced by thiolutin and partially restored thiolutin-induced inhibition of HUVEC adhesion to vitronectin. Based on these findings, we concluded that thiolutin, an inhibitor of HUVEC adhesion to vitronectin, reduces the paxillin level in HUVECs and suppresses tumor cell-induced angiogenesis in vivo. 相似文献

Loss of neural cell adhesion molecule induces tumor metastasis by up-regulating lymphangiogenesis 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Reduced expression of neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) has been implicated in the progression to tumor malignancy in cancer patients. Previously, we have shown that the loss of NCAM function causes the formation of lymph node metastasis in a transgenic mouse model of pancreatic beta cell carcinogenesis (Rip1Tag2). Here we show that tumors of NCAM-deficient Rip1Tag2 transgenic mice exhibit up-regulated expression of the lymphangiogenic factors vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C and -D (17% in wild-type versus 60% in NCAM-deficient Rip1Tag2 mice) and, with it, increased lymphangiogenesis (0% in wild-type versus 19% in NCAM-deficient Rip1Tag2 mice). Repression of VEGF-C and -D function by adenoviral expression of a soluble form of their cognate receptor, VEGF receptor-3, results in reduced tumor lymphangiogenesis (56% versus 28% in control versus treated mice) and lymph node metastasis (36% versus 8% in control versus treated mice). The results indicate that the loss of NCAM function causes lymph node metastasis via VEGF-C- and VEGF-D-mediated lymphangiogenesis. These results also establish Rip1Tag2;NCAM-deficient mice as a unique model for stochastic, endogenous tumor lymphangiogenesis and lymph node metastasis in immunocompetent mice. 相似文献

Introduction
Dysregulated NOTCH receptor activity has been implicated in breast cancer but the mechanisms by which NOTCH contributes to transformation are not yet clear, as it has context-dependent effects on the properties of transformed cells.Methods
We have used various in vitro and in vivo carcinogenic models to analyze the impact of Notch signaling in the onset and progression of breast tumors.Results
We found that ectopic expression of the Notch1 intracellular domain (N1ICD) in MCF-7 breast adenocarcinoma cell line caused reduction and delocalization of E-CADHERIN levels and increased migratory and invasive abilities. Notch inhibition in the invasive breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 resulted in increased E-CADHERIN expression and a parallel reduction in their invasive capacity. The growth of subcutaneous xenografts produced with MCF-7 cells was boosted after N1ICD induction, in a cell autonomous manner. In vivo Notch1 activation in the mammary gland using the MMTV-Cre driver caused the formation of papillary tumors that showed increased Hes1 and Hey1 expression and delocalized E-cadherin staining.Conclusions
These results confirm NOTCH1 as a signal triggering epithelial-mesenchymal transition in epithelial cancer cells, which may have implications in tumor dissemination, metastasis and proliferation in vivo. The identification of specific factors interacting with NOTCH signaling could thus be relevant to fully understanding the role of NOTCH in breast neoplasia. 相似文献18.

Lewis lung carcinoma cells express a plasma membrane receptor (i.e., IRGpIIb/IIIa) which is immunologically and functionally related to the platelet aggregation receptor complex (i.e., GpIIb/IIIa). Both fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometric analysis reveal that surface expression and/or activation of this tumor cell receptor is enhanced by a phorbol ester [i.e., 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)] and a lipoxygenase metabolite of arachidonic acid; 12-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (i.e., 12-HETE). TPA-enhanced expression appears to be mediated by a lipoxygenase metabolite, as this effect can be reversed by lipoxygenase inhibitors but not by cyclooxygenase inhibitors. In parallel with these results both TPA and 12(S)-HETE [but not 12(R)-HETE] enhance tumor cell adhesion to endothelial cells, subendothelial matrix and fibronectin, but not to type IV collagen. TPA-enhanced adhesion can be reduced by lipoxygenase inhibitors but not by cyclooxygenase inhibitors and in addition, stimulated adhesion can be blocked by pretreatment of tumor cells with specific polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies which react against IRGpIIb/IIIa. 12(S)-HETE-enhanced adhesion can also be inhibited by these same antibodies. In contrast, a lipoxygenase product of linoleic acid, 13(S)-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid, inhibited TPA and 12(S)-HETE-enhanced tumor cell adhesion to endothelial cells, subendothelial matrix, and fibronectin. These results suggest that (a) IRGpIIb/IIIa is a multifunctional receptor which mediates tumor cell adhesion to a variety of biological substrata, (b) TPA enhances surface expression and/or activation of this receptor possibly via a lipoxygenase metabolite of arachidonic acid, and (c) these effects are opposed by a lipoxygenase metabolite of linoleic acid. 相似文献

Most previous studies of the induction of tumor cell apoptosis by morphine have been conducted with concentrations very much higher than those used clinically. An investigation of the ability of morphine to induce apoptosis at its clinical concentration (10(-8) M) was therefore undertaken. Cytotoxicity was tested by 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, induction of early apoptosis and necrosis by fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS) analysis with Annexin V and propidium iodide (PI), activation of caspase -2, -3, -8 and -9 by cleavage of specific substrates, DNA fragmentation by agarose gel electrophoresis, radical intensity and O2- scavenging activity by ESR spectroscopy. Millimolar concentrations of morphine showed higher cytotoxicity against human tumor cell lines (HL-60, A549, MCF7) than against normal human cells (HGF, HPC, HPLF). The clinical concentration of morphine produced early apoptotic markers in HL-60 and A549 cells whereas it induced higher numbers of necrotic cells in MCF7 cells, both in a naloxone-sensitive manner. The clinical concentration of morphine failed to activate any caspase species and induced only trace amounts of internucleosomal DNA fragmentation, in contrast to cytotoxic concentrations of morphine. Morphine, with a C-3 hydroxyl group, showed higher cytotoxicity and O2- scavenging activity than codeine, in which the hydroxyl group at C-3 was replaced with a methoxy group, suggesting the involvement of a radical-mediated reaction. The present report may offer new strategies for treatment and prevention of cancer using a clinical concentration of morphine not only as an anti-nociceptive, but also as an apoptosis or necrosis inducer. 相似文献
