Lysophosphatidic acid promotes matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activation and MMP-dependent invasion in ovarian cancer cells.
Ovarian cancer is an highly metastatic disease characterized by ascites formation and diffuse i.p. adhesion, invasion, and metastasis. Levels of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) are elevated in the plasma of patients with ovarian carcinoma, including 90% of patients with stage I disease, suggesting that LPA may promote early events in ovarian carcinoma dissemination. Expression of matrix metalloprot...
متن کاملEvaluation of Neurogenic Potential of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Cells a Time- and Concentration- Dependent Manner
Background: Retinoic acid as one of the most important regulators for cell differentiation was examined in this study for differentiation of human umbilical mesenchymal cells (hUCM). Methods: After isolation, hUCM were evaluated for mesenchymal stem cell properties by flow cytometry and alkaline phosphatase assay. Also, doubling time of the cells and their differentiation potential into adipoge...
متن کاملTranscriptomal comparison of human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells ex vivo and in vitro.
The in vivo functions of lymphatic endothelial cells depend on their microenvironment, which cannot be fully reproduced in vitro. Because of technical limitations, gene expression in uncultured, "ex vivo" lymphatic endothelial cells has not been characterized at the molecular level. We combined tissue micropreparation and direct cell isolation with DNA chip experiments to identify 159 genes dif...
متن کاملMeasurement of shear stress-mediated intracellular calcium dynamics in human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells
The shear stress applied to lymphatic endothelial cells (LEC) by lymph flow changes dramatically under normal conditions as well as in response to disease conditions and immune reactions. In general, LEC are known to regulate the contraction frequency and strength of lymphatic pumping in response to shear stress. Intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) is an important factor that regula...
متن کاملHypoxia induces autophagy in human vascular endothelial cells in a hypoxia-inducible factor 1‑dependent manner.
Hypoxia has been widely implicated in numerous pathological conditions, including those associated with inflammation and tumorigenesis. A number of recent studies have implicated hypoxia in the control of microvascular damage, the basis for which is not fully understood. In the present study, it was identified that autophagy was induced in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) post tr...
