Metastatic tumor cells

Tumor classification — Drug treatment regimes often depend upon tumor type. The origins of metastatic tumor cells can be difficult to determine by conventional histopathology. Gene expression profiling may complement the more traditional methodologies where tumors are difficult to classify. [Pg.14]

Beside adhesion per se, tumor cell interactions with ECM components influence motility, invasiveness and many other important aspects of the metastatic tumor cell phenotype. Tumor cell motility and adhesion are, in fact, closely linked, thus implicating a role for tumor cell adhesion in invasion. Indeed, tumor cell invasion has been proposed to represent a three step process, involving tumor cell adhesion, release of ECM degrading enzymes and tumor cell... [Pg.51]

The involvement of platelets in assisting hematogenous spread of metastatic tumor cells and the interactions between platelets, cancer cells, and the blood vessel wall were proposed decades ago. This was confirmed in experimental model systems of thrombocytopenia which showed inhibition of metastasis (Gasic et al., 1973 Kimoto et al., 1993). Honn et al, proposed the first hypothesis on the involvement of bioactive lipid mediators, specifically TXA2... [Pg.158]

Fig. 6.3 Eicosanoids and Tumor-platelet interactions in metastasis and the role of 12-HETE in tumor cell extravasation. Studies have clearly shown that hematogenous route of metastasis spread of cancer cells, involves interactions with platelets. Tumor-platelet interactions and subsequent aggregation is critically controlled by a delicate balance between the level of endothelium derived PGI2 and platelet or tumor derived TXA2. Elevated TXA2 levels in the circulation can tip the balance towards platelet aggregation and tumor metastasis to distant organs, whereas increases in PGI2 levels can block this interaction preventing spread of cancer cells. Shown in this illustration is a schematic of a blood vessel, with metastatic tumor cells interacting with platelets. Interactions of tumor cells with platelets and endothelial cells have been demonstrated to induce 12(S)-HETE production, which leads to retraction of endothelial cell layers enabling metastatic tumor cells to extravasate and set up secondary colonies of metastasis...

As shown in Fig. (5) , primary tumor cells in the spleen grew and invaded the while and red pulp of the spleen in mice with intrasplenically implanted LLC. The orally administered triterpenoid fractions (100 or 200 mg/kg) prevented the tumor growth and the invasion of the white pulp of the spleen. Furthermore, the orally administered triterpenoid fractions induced an accumulaiion of lymphocytes around tumor cells in the white pulp of the spleen Fig. (5) . The metastatic tumor cells in the liver also grew and invaded the hepatocytes in mice with intrasplenically implanted... [Pg.60]

Pirollo et al. developed a nanoimmunoliposome modified with anti-TfR scFV to deliver siRNA to tumor cells. A fluorescein-labeled siRNA was delivered via systemic injection and it was specifically distributed into primary and metastatic tumor cells [110]. Later, the authors developed a similar nanoimmunoliposome for an anti-Her-2 siRNA. To enhance the endosomal release, a pH-sensitive histidine-lysine peptide was included in the complex. The in vitro results showed that the complexes can sensitize human cancer cells to che-motherapeutics. Furthermore, systemic delivery of the siRNA significantly inhibit tumor growth in a pancreatic cancer model [109]. [Pg.427]

Given our recent observations and the observations of others, we can conclude that the nonrandom expression of chemokine receptors in tumor cells is pivotal in determining the metastatic destination of these cells. In such a model, metasta-ses are actually very difficult to become established, as metastatic tumor cells have to form a beachhead to successfully proliferate and invade. It is likely that chemokines play a central role, along with other adhesion molecules, in cancer metastasis. [Pg.9]

Studies in our laboratory have found similar results with NSCLC cell lines (unpublished observations). These findings support the notion that certain chemokine ligand(s) and their receptors orchestrate precise and preferential destination of metastatic tumor cells to specific organs. [Pg.316]
