PET of c-Met in Cancer with ⁶⁴Cu-Labeled Hepatocyte Growth Factor.
UNLABELLED The hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor, c-Met, are actively involved in tumor progression and metastasis and are closely associated with a poor prognostic outcome for cancer patients. Thus, the development of PET agents that can assess c-Met expression would be extremely useful for diagnosing cancer and subsequently monitoring response to c-Met-targeted therapies. Here, ...
متن کاملPET Imaging of Tissue Factor in Pancreatic Cancer Using 64Cu-Labeled Active Site-Inhibited Factor VII.
UNLABELLED Tissue factor (TF) is the main initiator of the extrinsic coagulation cascade. However, TF also plays an important role in cancer. TF expression has been reported in 53%-89% of all pancreatic adenocarcinomas, and the expression level of TF has in clinical studies correlated with advanced stage, increased microvessel density, metastasis, and poor overall survival. Imaging of TF expres...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor/MET in cancer progression and biomarker discovery
Signaling driven by hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and MET receptor facilitates conspicuous biological responses such as epithelial cell migration, 3-D morphogenesis, and survival. The dynamic migration and promotion of cell survival induced by MET activation are bases for invasion-metastasis and resistance, respectively, against targeted drugs in cancers. Recent studies indicated that MET in t...
متن کاملClinical significance of hepatocyte growth factor/c-Met expression in the assessment of gastric cancer progression
Among the mechanisms that control cancer progression, cell mobility is a significant factor required for cellular liberation from the primary focus and infiltration. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has been shown to facilitate cell mobility. In the present study, the clinical significance of the HGF/c‑Met pathway in the assessment of gastric cancer progression was evaluated. From a cohort of pat...
متن کاملModulation of the c-Met/hepatocyte growth factor pathway in small cell lung cancer.
The c-Met receptor tyrosine kinase and its ligand HGF (hepatocyte growth factor) have been shown to be involved in angiogenesis, cellular motility, growth, invasion, and differentiation. The role of c-Met/HGF axis in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) has not been reported previously. We have determined the expression of p170(c-Met) precursor and p140(c-Met) beta-chain in seven SCLC cell lines by im...
