Abstract:
:Alkyl-lysophospholipids have been shown to possess antitumoral activity in animal and in human tumors. Among them, racemic 1-O-octadecyl-2-O-methylglycero-3-phosphocholine (ET-18-OCH3) had an antimetastatic effect in experimental tumors. We investigated the effect of ET-18-OCH3 on invasion of MO4 mouse fibrosarcoma cells and on cellular activities possibly related to invasion in vitro. Ten micrograms of ET-18-OCH3 per ml permitted growth of MO4 cells to about 75% of controls and slightly reduced trypan blue exclusion. Directional migration inferred from the area covered by MO4 cells that had migrated from an aggregate on glass was not affected. Reassembly of microtubules after treatment with 1 microgram of Nocodazole per ml occurred normally in presence of ET-18-OCH3. Invasion was completely inhibited when MO4 cell aggregates were confronted with precultured fragments of embryonic chick cardiac muscle or with fresh embryonic chick lung fragments in culture on gyratory shaker in fluid medium with 10 micrograms of ET-18-OCH3 per ml. These experiments showed that ET-18-OCH3, in contrast with microtubule inhibitors, interfered with invasion of MO4 cells in vitro at concentrations that permitted growth and directional migration of MO4 cells. Fluorescence polarization studies with the lipophylic probe diphenylhexatriene indicated that the antiinvasive effect of ET-18-OCH3 was accompanied by an overall increase of membrane fluidity. We tentatively concluded that alterations of the MO4 cellular membranes are responsible for the antiinvasive effect of ET-18-OCH3.

CANCER RESEARCH文献大全abstract::Cancers are initiated as a result of changes that occur in the genome. Identification of gains and losses in the structure and expression of tumor-suppressor genes and oncogenes lies at the root of the understanding of cancer cell biology.
