Abstract
Tissue factor (TF) has been extensively studied for tumor metastasis, but its role in mediating cancer cell adhesion to vasculature remains unknown. This study aimed to measure the ability of TF to mediate the adhesion of breast cancer cells to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). MDA-MB-231 cells expressed the highest TF level and adhered more to HUVECs under static and flow conditions, a neutralizing TF antibody abolished the enhanced adhesion of MDA-MB-231 cells to HUVECs. Recombinant human soluble TF (rTF) bonded β1integrin on HUVECs surfaces, β1 or α3integrin antibody combined with TF antibody abolished more cell-cell adhesion. These data suggested that TF mediated adhesion of breast cancer cells to endothelial cells may rely on β1integrin on HUVECs surfaces.
期刊介绍:
Cell Adhesion & Migration is a multi-disciplinary, peer reviewed open access journal that focuses on the biological or pathological implications of cell-cell and cell-microenvironment interactions. The main focus of this journal is fundamental science. The journal strives to serve a broad readership by regularly publishing review articles covering specific disciplines within the field, and by publishing focused issues that provide an overview on specific topics of interest within the field.
Cell Adhesion & Migration publishes relevant and timely original research, as well as authoritative overviews, commentaries, and perspectives, providing context for the work presented in Cell Adhesion & Migration and for key results published elsewhere. Original research papers may cover all topics important in the field of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Cell Adhesion & Migration also publishes articles related to cell biomechanics, biomaterial, and development of related imaging technologies.
