Abstract

IGF-binding protein (IGFBP)-3 is generally considered to have actions that counterbalance those of IGFs and is therefore being developed as a cancer treatment. In breast tumors, however, high levels are associated with aggressive tumors and poor prognosis. Consistent with this we have demonstrated that although IGFBP-3 and a non-IGF-binding fragment (serine phosphorylation domain peptide) reduced attachment and enhanced apoptosis of Hs578T breast cancer cells cultured on collagen or laminin, it promoted their attachment and survival on fibronectin, which is abundant in the matrix of aggressive tumors. We have now examined the factors that determine whether IGFBP-3 has positive or negative actions on breast epithelial cells. IGFBP-3 also promoted survival of Hs578T cells in the presence of an antibody to the beta1-integrin subunit or when cholesterol-stabilized complexes were disrupted. These actions were blocked by IGF-I or a MAPK inhibitor. Serine phosphorylation domain peptide had similar actions on MCF-7 cells that were again reversed on fibronectin or with disruption of cholesterol-stabilized complexes and blocked by the beta1-integrin antibody. In contrast, IGFBP-3 promoted growth and survival for nonmalignant MCF-10A cell...Continue Reading

Apoptosis

Apoptosis is a specific process that leads to programmed cell death through the activation of an evolutionary conserved intracellular pathway leading to pathognomic cellular changes distinct from cellular necrosis

Caveolins & Signal Transduction

Caveolins are small proteins with a hairpin loop conformation that are located in the plasma membrane of various cell types where they bind cholesterol and interact with receptors essential for several signal transduction pathways. Here is the latest research.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
