p37 Induces tumor invasiveness.
Previous studies have shown a statistically significant correlation between human carcinomas and monoclonal antibody detection of a Mycoplasma hyorhinis-encoded protein known as p37. A potential mechanism of p37 is that it might promote invasion and metastasis. Recombinant p37 enhanced the invasiveness of two prostate carcinoma and two melanoma cell lines in a dose-dependent manner in vitro, bu...
متن کاملCD95 ligand induces motility and invasiveness of apoptosis-resistant tumor cells.
The apoptosis-inducing death receptor CD95 (APO-1/Fas) controls the homeostasis of many tissues. Despite its apoptotic potential, most human tumors are refractory to the cytotoxic effects of CD95 ligand. We now show that CD95 stimulation of multiple apoptosis-resistant tumor cells by CD95 ligand induces increased motility and invasiveness, a response much less efficiently triggered by TNFalpha ...
متن کاملTranscription factor Sp1 induces ADAM17 and contributes to tumor cell invasiveness under hypoxia
BACKGROUND Expression of the Sp1 transcription factor is induced by hypoxia, and the ADAM17 promoter contains predicted Sp1 binding sites. ADAM17 contributes to hypoxic-induce invasiveness of glioma. In this study, we investigated whether Sp1 transcription factor induces ADAM17 and/or contributes to tumor cell invasiveness in hypoxia. METHODS Employing RT-PCR and Western blot, we examined the...
متن کاملEndothelin-1 induces tumor proteinase activation and invasiveness of ovarian carcinoma cells.
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is present at high concentrations in ovarian cancer ascites and is overexpressed in primary and metastatic ovarian carcinoma. In these cells, ET-1 acts as an autocrine mitogenic and angiogenic factor selectively through the ET(A) receptor (ET(A)R). We investigated at mRNA and protein levels whether ET-1 could affect the expression and activation of metastasis-related protein...
متن کاملInsight Ferrara p37-44
Inhibiting angiogenesis is a promising strategy for treatment of cancer and several other disorders, including age-related macular degeneration. Major progress towards a treatment has been achieved over the past few years, and the first antiangiogenic agents have been recently approved for use in several countries. Therapeutic angiogenesis (promoting new vessel growth to treat ischaemic disorde...
