CD44 is a cell surface adhesion molecule for hyaluronan and is implicated in tumor invasion and metastasis. Proteolytic cleavage of CD44 plays a critical role in the migration of tumor cells and is regulated by factors present in the tumor microenvironment, such as hyaluronan oligosaccharides and epidermal growth factor. However, molecular mechanisms underlying the proteolytic cleavage on membranes remain poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrated that cholesterol depletion with methyl-β-cyclodextrin, which disintegrates membrane lipid rafts, enhances CD44 shedding mediated by a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10) and that cholesterol depletion disorders CD44 localization to the lipid raft. We also evaluated the effect of long term cholesterol reduction using a statin agent and demonstrated that statin enhances CD44 shedding and suppresses tumor cell migration on a hyaluronan-coated substrate. Our results indicate that membrane lipid organization regulates CD44 shedding and propose a possible molecular mechanism by which cholesterol reduction might be effective for preventing and treating the progression of malignant tumors. 相似文献

A variety of cell surface adhesion molecules can exist as both transmembrane proteins and soluble circulating forms. Increases in the levels of soluble adhesion molecules have been correlated with a variety of inflammatory diseases, suggesting a pathological role. Although soluble forms are thought to result from proteolytic cleavage from the cell surface, relatively little is known about the proteases responsible for their release. In this report we demonstrate that under normal culture conditions, cells expressing vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) release a soluble form of the extracellular domain that is generated by metalloproteinase-mediated cleavage. VCAM-1 release can be rapidly simulated by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), and this induced VCAM-1 shedding is mediated by metalloproteinase cleavage of VCAM-1 near the transmembrane domain. PMA-induced VCAM-1 shedding occurs as the result of activation of a specific pathway, as the generation of soluble forms of three other adhesion molecules, E-selectin, platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1, and intercellular adhesion molecule 1, are not altered by PMA stimulation. Using cells derived from genetically deficient mice, we identify tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE or ADAM 17) as the protease responsible for PMA-induced VCAM-1 release, including shedding of endogenously expressed VCAM-1 by murine endothelial cells. Therefore, TACE-mediated shedding of VCAM-1 may be important for the regulation of VCAM-1 function at the cell surface. 相似文献

Activated Leukocyte Cell Adhesion Molecule (ALCAM/CD166) is a glycoprotein involved in homotypic and heterotypic cell adhesion. ALCAM can be proteolytically cleaved at the cell surface by metalloproteases, which generate shedding of its ectodomain. In various tumors, ALCAM is overexpressed and serves as a valuable prognostic marker of disease progression. Moreover, CD166 has been identified as a putative cancer stem cell marker in particular cancers. Herein, we summarize biochemical aspects of ALCAM, including structure, proteolytic shedding, alternative splicing, and specific ligands, and integrate this information with biological functions of this glycoprotein including cell adhesion, migration and invasion. In addition, we discuss different patterns of ALCAM expression in distinct tumor types and its contribution to tumor progression. Finally, we highlight the role of ALCAM as a cancer stem cell marker and introduce current clinical trials associated with this molecule. Future studies are needed to define the value of shed ALCAM in biofluids or ALCAM isoform expression as prognostic biomarkers in tumor progression. 相似文献

Ectodomain shedding of cell surface proteins is an important process in a wide variety of physiological and developmental events. Recently, tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE) has been found to play an essential role in the shedding of several critical surface proteins, which is evidenced by multiple developmental defects exhibited by TACE knockout mice. However, little is known about the physiological activation of TACE. Here, we show that nitric oxide (NO) activates TACE-mediated ectodomain shedding. Using an in vitro model of TACE activation, we show that NO activates TACE by nitrosation of the inhibitory motif of the TACE prodomain. Thus, NO production activates the release of cytokines, cytokine receptors, and adhesion molecules, and NO may be involved in other ectodomain shedding processes. 相似文献

Met, the tyrosine kinase receptor for the hepatocyte growth factor is a prominent regulator of cancer cell invasiveness and has emerged as a promising therapeutic target. Binding of the anti-Met monoclonal antibody DN30 to its epitope induces the proteolytic cleavage of Met, thereby impairing the invasive growth of tumors. The molecular mechanism controlling this therapeutic shedding process has so far been unknown. Here, we report that A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase (ADAM)-10, but not ADAM-17, is required for DN30-induced Met shedding. Knockdown of ADAM-10 in different tumor cell lines or abrogation of its proteolytic activity by natural or synthetic inhibitors abolished Met down-regulation on the cell surface as well as reduction of Met activation. Moreover, hepatocyte growth factor-induced tumor cell migration and invasion were impaired upon ADAM-10 knockdown. Thus, the therapeutic effect of DN30 involves ADAM-10-dependent Met shedding, linking for the first time a specific metalloprotease to target therapy against a receptor tyrosine kinase. 相似文献

Glioblastoma, the most malignant form of brain cancer, is responsible for 23% of primary brain tumors and has extremely poor outcome. Confounding the clinical management of glioblastomas is the extreme local invasiveness of these cancer cells. The mechanisms that govern invasion are poorly understood. To gain insight into glioblastoma invasion, we conducted experiments on the patterns of growth and dispersion of U87 glioblastoma tumor spheroids in a three-dimensional collagen gel. We studied two different cell lines, one with a mutation to the EGFR (U87DeltaEGFR) that is associated with increased malignancy, and one with an endogenous (wild-type) receptor (U87WT). We developed a continuum mathematical model of the dispersion behaviors with the aim of identifying and characterizing discrete cellular mechanisms underlying invasive cell motility. The mathematical model quantitatively reproduces the experimental data, and indicates that the U87WT invasive cells have a stronger directional motility bias away from the spheroid center as well as a faster rate of cell shedding compared to the U87DeltaEGFR cells. The model suggests that differences in tumor cell dispersion may be due to differences in the chemical factors produced by cells, differences in how the two cell lines remodel the gel, or different cell-cell adhesion characteristics. 相似文献

Stimulation-induced down-regulation of tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The extracellular domains of many proteins, including growth factors, cytokines, receptors, and adhesion molecules, are proteolytically released from cells, a process termed "shedding." Tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme (TACE/ADAM-17) is a metalloprotease-disintegrin that sheds tumor necrosis factor-alpha and other proteins. To study the regulation of TACE-mediated shedding, we examined the effects of stimulation of cells on TACE localization and expression. Immunofluorescence microscopy revealed a punctate distribution of TACE on the surface of untreated cells, and stimulation of monocytic cells with lipopolysaccharide did not affect TACE staining. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a potent inducer of shedding, decreased cell-surface staining for TACE. Surface biotinylation experiments confirmed and extended this observation; PMA decreased the half-life of surface-biotinylated TACE without increasing the turnover of total cell-surface proteins. Soluble fragments of TACE were not detected in the medium of cells that had down-regulated TACE, and TACE was not down-regulated when endocytosis was inhibited. Antibody uptake experiments suggested that cell-surface TACE was internalized in response to PMA. Surprisingly, a metalloprotease inhibitor prevented the PMA-induced turnover of TACE. Thus, PMA activates shedding and causes the down-regulation of a major "sheddase," suggesting that induced shedding may be regulated by a mechanism that decreases the amount of active TACE on the cell surface. 相似文献

Role of cell surface oligosaccharides of mouse mammary tumor cell lines in cancer metastasis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Malignant transformation is associated with changes in the glycosylation of cell surface proteins and lipids. In tumor cells, alterations in cellular glycosylation may play a key role in their metastatic behaviour. In the present study, we have assessed the relationship between cell surface oligosaccharides and the metastasis ability of mouse mammary tumor cell lines 67NR and 4TO7. The cell surface oligosaccharides have been analyzed using specific binding assays with some plant lectins and the metastasis ability has been studied using transwell migration and invasion assays. In addition, we investigated the role of terminal sialic acids in the metastatic potential (cell adhesion on fibronectin, cell migration and invasion) in the 4TO7 cells on treatment with neuraminidase. The cell lines used in study have different metastasis abilities in vivo - the 67NR form primary tumors, but no tumor cells are detectable in any distant tissues, while cells of the 4TO7 line are able to spread to lung. In vitro metastasis experiments have revealed higher ability of adhesion, cell migration and invasion in the 4TO7 cells than the 67NR cells. Specific lectins binding assays show that the 4TO7 cells expressed more high-mannose type, multi-antennary complex-type N-glycans, beta-1,6-GlcNAc-branching, alpha-2,6-linked sialic acids, N-acetylgalactosamine and galactosyl(beta-1,3)-N-acetylgalactosamine. Removal of sialic acids on treatment with neuraminidase decreases adhesion, but increases the migration and has shown no significant change in the invasion ability of the 4TO7 cells. The study suggests that the sialic acids are not crucial for the cell migration and invasion in the 4TO7 cells. The findings provide the new insights in understanding the role of cell surface oligosaccharides in cancer metastasis. 相似文献

The growth of multicellular tumor spheroids, MTSs, from squamous carcinoma line MDA 886Ln was inhibited by beta-all-trans retinoic acid (RA). Inhibition occurred within 3 to 5 days of treatment, and MTS size then remained static for up to 2 weeks. Although their growth stopped, 10-day-treated MTSs incorporated [3H]thymidine into trichloroacetic acid-precipitable material, and the [3H]thymidine labeling index, determined by autoradiography, was equivalent between control and RA-treated MTSs. Bivariate flow cytometric analysis of bromodeoxyuridine-labeled MTSs showed equivalent S phase progression of labeled cells over an 8-hour chase. MTS growth stasis was not related to RA-induced cell cycle effects. Monitoring of MTSs for cell sloughing showed no significant cell shedding that could account for stasis. Quantitation of cell number and DNA content per MTS showed an RA-induced decrease. This was confirmed by histological analysis, which demonstrated the temporal appearance of acellular areas. MTS growth statis is thus related to an RA-induced cell loss in this MTS model for squamous carcinomas. 相似文献

《Cell Adhesion & Migration》2013,7(4):334-336
In addition to mediating cell adhesion, many cell adhesion molecules act as tumor suppressors. These proteins are capable of restricting cell growth mainly through contact inhibition. Alterations of these cell adhesion molecules are a common event in cancer. The resulting loss of cell-cell and/or cell-extracellular matrix adhesion promotes cell growth as well as tumor dissemination. Therefore, it is conventionally accepted that cell adhesion molecules that function as tumor suppressors are also involved in limiting tumor cell migration. Paradoxically, in 2005, we identified an immunoglobulin superfamily cell adhesion molecule hepaCAM that is able to suppress cancer cell growth and yet induce migration. Almost concurrently, CEACAM1 was verified to co-function as a tumor suppressor and invasion promoter. To date, the reason and mechanism responsible for this exceptional phenomenon remain unclear. Nevertheless, the emergence of these intriguing cell adhesion molecules with conflicting roles may open a new chapter to the biological significance of cell adhesion molecules. 相似文献

Discoidin domain receptor 1 (DDR1) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that binds and transmits signals from various collagens in epithelial cells. However, how DDR1–dependent signaling is regulated has not been understood. Here we report that collagen binding induces ADAM10-dependent ectodomain shedding of DDR1. DDR1 shedding is not a result of an activation of its signaling pathway, since DDR1 mutants defective in signaling were shed in an efficient manner. DDR1 and ADAM10 were found to be in a complex on the cell surface, but shedding did not occur unless collagen bound to DDR1. Using a shedding-resistant DDR1 mutant, we found that ADAM10-dependent DDR1 shedding regulates the half-life of collagen-induced phosphorylation of the receptor. Our data also revealed that ADAM10 plays an important role in regulating DDR1-mediated cell adhesion to achieve efficient cell migration on collagen matrices. 相似文献

Tumorigenesis often involves specific changes in cell motility and intercellular adhesion. Understanding the collective cancer cell behavior associated with these specific changes could facilitate the detection of malignant characteristics during tumor growth and invasion. In this study, a cellular vertex model is developed to investigate the collective dynamics of a disk-like aggregate of cancer cells confined in a confluent monolayer of normal cells. The effects of intercellular adhesion and cell motility on tumor progression are examined. It is found that the stresses in both the cancer cells and the normal cells increase with tumor growth, resulting in a crowded environment and enhanced cell apoptosis. The intercellular adhesion between cancer cells and normal cells is revealed to promote tumor growth and invasion. The tumor invasion dynamics hinges on the motility of cancer cells. The cancer cells could orchestrate into different collective migration modes, e.g., directional migration and rotational oscillations, dictated by the competition between cell persistence and local coordination. Phase diagrams are established to reveal the competitive mechanisms. This work highlights the role of mechanics in regulating tumor growth and invasion. 相似文献

There has been increasing use of in vitro cell culture models that more realistically replicate the three‐dimensional (3D) environment found in vivo. Multicellular tumor spheroids (MTS) using cell lines or patient‐derived organoids have become an important in vitro drug development tool, where cells are grown in a 3D “sphere” that exhibits many of the characteristics found in vivo. Significantly, MTS develop gradients in nutrients and oxygen, commonly found in tumors that contribute to therapy resistance. While MTS show promise as a more realistic in vitro culture model, there is a massive need to improve imaging technologies for assessing biochemical characteristics and drug response in such models to maximize their translation into useful applications such as high throughput screening (HTS). In this study, we investigate the potential for Raman spectroscopy to unveil biochemical information in MTS and have investigated how spheroid age influences drug response, shedding light on increased therapy resistance in developing tumors. The wealth of molecular level information delivered by Raman spectroscopy in a noninvasive manner, could aid translation of these 3D models into HTS applications. 相似文献

Tumors secreting glycoproteins that act as tumor-associated antigens have been described as highly invasive and metastatic. In this study, the consequences of the humoral immune response (HIR) against these antigens were investigated. Using an in vitro model of tumor cell invasion, results indicated that the invasiveness of tumor cells secreting antigenic secreted/shed tumor glycoproteins (STGP) increases in the presence of specific anti-STGP IgG, polymorphonuclear cells and monocytes. This in vitro model showed that the coincidental presence in the matrix of both STGP and specific anti-STGP IgG increases the local release of IL-1beta, IL-6 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) by stromal cells, but not by tumor cells. Using an in vivo model, the experiments show that immune-competent mice develop an anti-tumor HIR with anti-STGP IgG production. In this model, tumor growth was increased in parallel with the serum concentration of specific anti-STGP IgG. In athymic nude (nu/nu)-beige mice the same trend was observed, suggesting a T-cell-independent tumor-promoting effect induced by anti-STGP IgG. Tumor histology showed intense infiltration of IgG-positive plasma cells and lymphocytes. A severe combined immunodeficient-beige mouse-based in vivo model of tumors, experimentally infiltrated with monoclonal IgG plasmocytoma cells, showed that only specific anti-STGP-IgG-secreting cells could exacerbate tumor invasion, angiogenesis and metastasis. These results suggest that tumors shedding/secreting antigenic STGP can induce a host IgG immune response that can promote invasion and metastasis by inducing tumor infiltrating stromal cells to release proinflammatory cytokines and VEGF. 相似文献

In contrast with the early view of metalloproteases as simple extracellular matrix-degrading entities, recent findings show that they are highly specific modulators of different signaling pathways involved, positively or negatively, in tumor development. Thus, before considering a given metalloprotease a therapeutic target, it seems advisable to characterize its function by identifying its repertoire of substrates. Here, we present a proteomic approach to identify ADAM17 substrates by difference gel electrophoresis. We found that the shedding of the extracellular domain of the transferrin receptor and those of two cell-cell adhesion molecules, activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM) and desmoglein 2 (Dsg-2), is increased in cells overexpressing ADAM17. Genetic evidence shows that while ADAM17 is responsible for the shedding of ALCAM, both ADAM17 and ADAM10 can act on Dsg-2. Activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor leads to the upregulation of the shedding of Dsg-2 and to the concomitant upregulation of ADAM17, but not ADAM10, supporting the ability of overexpressed ADAM17 to shed Dsg-2. These results unveil a role of ADAM10 and ADAM17 in the shedding of cell-cell adhesion molecules. Since loss of cell adhesion is an early event in tumor development, these results suggest that ADAM17 is a useful target in anticancer therapy. 相似文献

The metastatic spread of tumor cells occurs through a complex series of events, one of which involves the adhesion of tumor cells to extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Multiple interactions between cell surface receptors of an adherent tumor cell and the surrounding ECM contribute to cell motility and invasion. The current studies evaluate the role of a cell surface chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) in the adhesion, motility, and invasive behavior of a highly metastatic mouse melanoma cell line (K1735 M4) on type I collagen matrices. By blocking mouse melanoma cell production of CSPG with p-nitrophenyl beta-D-xylopyranoside (beta-D-xyloside), a compound that uncouples chondroitin sulfate from CSPG core protein synthesis, we observed a corresponding decrease in melanoma cell motility on type I collagen and invasive behavior into type I collagen gels. Melanoma cell motility on type I collagen could also be inhibited by removing cell surface chondroitin sulfate with chondroitinase. In contrast, type I collagen-mediated melanoma cell adhesion and spreading were not affected by either beta-D-xyloside or chondroitinase treatments. These results suggest that mouse melanoma CSPG is not a primary cell adhesion receptor, but may play a role in melanoma cell motility and invasion at the level of cellular translocation. Furthermore, purified mouse melanoma cell surface CSPG was shown, by affinity chromatography and in solid phase binding assays, to bind to type I collagen and this interaction was shown to be mediated, at least in part, by chondroitin sulfate. Additionally we have determined that mouse melanoma CSPG is composed of a 110-kD core protein that is recognized by anti-CD44 antibodies on Western blots. Collectively, our data suggests that interactions between a cell surface CD44-related CSPG and type I collagen in the ECM may play an important role in mouse melanoma cell motility and invasion, and that the chondroitin sulfate portion of the proteoglycan seems to be a critical component in mediating this effect. 相似文献

Distant organ metastasis is linked to poor prognosis during cancer progression. The expression level of the focal adhesion adapter protein paxillin varies among different human cancers, but its role in tumor progression is unclear. Herein we utilize a newly generated PyMT mammary tumor mouse model with conditional paxillin ablation in breast tumor epithelial cells, combined with in vitro three-dimensional (3D) tumor organoids invasion analysis and 2D calcium switch assays, to assess the roles for paxillin in breast tumor cell invasion. Paxillin had little effect on primary tumor initiation and growth but is critical for the formation of distant lung metastasis. In paxillin-depleted 3D tumor organoids, collective cell invasion was substantially perturbed. The 2D cell culture revealed paxillin-dependent stabilization of adherens junctions (AJ). Mechanistically, paxillin is required for AJ assembly through facilitating E-cadherin endocytosis and recycling and HDAC6-mediated microtubule acetylation. Furthermore, Rho GTPase activity analysis and rescue experiments with a RhoA activator or Rac1 inhibitor suggest paxillin is potentially regulating the E-cadherin-dependent junction integrity and contractility through control of the balance of RhoA and Rac1 activities. Together, these data highlight new roles for paxillin in the regulation of cell–cell adhesion and collective tumor cell migration to promote the formation of distance organ metastases. 相似文献

Microvesicles (MV) are membrane vesicles secreted from the plasma and endosomal membrane compartment by various cell types such as hematopoietic, epithelial, and tumor cells. Actively growing tumor cells shed MV, and the rate of shedding increases in malignant tumors. Although recent progress in this area has revealed that tumor-derived MV play multiple roles in tumor growth and metastasis via immune escape, tumor invasion, and angiogenesis, the mechanism of vesicle formation and the biological roles of tumor-derived MV are not understood. Here, we report the first global proteomic analysis of highly purified MV from human colorectal cancer cells. Using 1D SDS gel electrophoresis and nano-LC-MS/MS analyses, we identified a total of 547 microvesicular proteins from three independent experiments with high confidence; 416 proteins were identified at least in two trials, including 181 as yet unreported proteins. We identified 49 proteins involved in the biogenesis of MV, including annexins, ADP-ribosylation factors, and Rab proteins. We also identified 28 proteins that may function in tumorigenesis via promotion of migration, invasion, and growth of tumor cells, immune modulation, metastasis, and angiogenesis. Taken together with previously reported results, our observations suggest that tumor-derived MV may act as communicasomes, that is, extracellular organelles that play diverse roles in intercellular communication. This information will help elucidate the biogenesis and functions of tumor-derived MV, and aid in the development of effective vaccines for various cancers, including colorectal cancer. 相似文献

We have developed an off-lattice hybrid discrete-continuum (OLHDC) model of tumor growth and invasion. The continuum part of the OLHDC model describes microenvironmental components such as matrix-degrading enzymes, nutrients or oxygen, and extracellular matrix (ECM) concentrations, whereas the discrete portion represents individual cell behavior such as cell cycle, cell-cell, and cell-ECM interactions and cell motility by the often-used persistent random walk, which can be depicted by the Langevin equation. Using this framework of the OLHDC model, we develop a phenomenologically realistic and bio/physically relevant model that encompasses the experimentally observed superdiffusive behavior (at short times) of mammalian cells. When systemic simulations based on the OLHDC model are performed, tumor growth and its morphology are found to be strongly affected by cell-cell adhesion and haptotaxis. There is a combination of the strength of cell-cell adhesion and haptotaxis in which fingerlike shapes, characteristic of invasive tumor, are observed. 相似文献
