The selectin-selectin ligand axis in tumor progression

Cancer Metastasis Reviews
Isaac P Witz

Abstract

This review will document that the selectin-selectin ligand axis is actively involved in tumor progression and drives this process. The involvement of selectins and their ligands in tumor progression takes place at three levels which will be reviewed: Interaction of tumor cells with platelets and leukocytes resulting in the formation of circulating emboli; interaction of tumor cells with endothelial cells leading to extravasation of the tumor cells; and utilization of reciprocal pro malignancy signals delivered by the selectins or by their ligands to interacting cells that express the corresponding co-receptor. We propose that the selectin-selectin ligand mediated interactions between cells in the tumor microenvironment constitute an axis of evil, that it be included in the list of pro malignancy factors, and that molecules associated with this axis serve as targets for cancer therapy.

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. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.
