abstract：:The tumor promoting agent 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) stimulates cell migration of several tumor cells. Recently, we reported that loss of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptor-3 (LPA(3)) enhanced cell migration of murine lung tumor LL/2 cells. In the present study, we investigated whether LPA(3) is invo...
