Amoeboid Transformation of Tumor Cells

TSP and cancer. Moibilli and canine distemper virus-induced cell fusions (sync5 tia) are mediated by CD9 TSP. TSP proteins involved in dendritic cell and l5nnphoc5 te movements and their eell-to-cell interaction. Cancer cell interaction with stromal cells involve TSP proteins (the Villejuif studies). TSP increased colon cancer eell migration by downregulating laminin-binding 

Peritoneal mesotheUal cells overproduce the protein product CSF-1 (the ligand), and receptor C-FMS-expressor endometrial cells respond with overproliferation. All-trans retinoic acid (atRA) acted upon CSF-Rl and stimulated the growth and anchorage-independent invasiveness of two breast carcinoma cell lines.(a reaction opposite to atR-induced differentiation of promyelocytic leukemia cells).
