Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we elucidated the mechanism that PDE1 inhibitor suppresses mobility of malignant melanoma cells. Sildenafil inhibited the polymerization of actin at the leading edge of the human oral malignant melanoma MAA cells, and also inhibited the formation of lamellipodia. Since MAA cells express PDE1 and do not express PDE5, the elevation of intracellular cAMP concentration through inhibition of PDE1 may be involved in suppression of the mobility of MAA by sildenafil.
