pubmed:abstractText |
Normally nonmetastatic murine sis-transformed BALB/c 3T3 cells, transfected with human CD44s gene (hCD44s), acquire spontaneous metastatic capacity to the lung. The mechanism(s) of this facilitated micrometastasis was analyzed in an experimental metastasis model. Human CD44s overexpression promoted the earliest stages severalfold (initial implantation and subsequent stabilization of tumor cells) but was irrelevant for later stages (subsequent outgrowth) of lung experimental micrometastasis. By injecting mixed populations of parental (nonmetastatic) and CD44s-transfected cells, it was shown that cell-cell adhesion between tumor and parental cells was not promoted by hCD44s but that promotion of cell-cell adhesion to lung endothelium or specifically between transfected cells (via hyaluronan) are likely mechanisms. Results obtained with hCD44s-negative primary tumor cells and hCD44s-positive or -negative variants of lung micrometastatic cells (after s.c. injection of transfectants) confirmed the importance of CD44s overexpression for early but not late stages of experimental lung metastasis. Therefore, CD44s represents a metastasis-facilitating molecule that is irrelevant for primary tumor outgrowth but that promotes micrometastasis to the lungs at the very earliest stages.
