Research Abstract |
Arf6 was previously proposed to be critical for epithelial cancer invasion. In this study, possible participation of one of the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan NG2 at the upstream of Arf6 in glioma invasion was presented. Moreover, a signal mediated by sodium ion/proton exchanger 1 (NHE-1) was found to play a pivotal role in glioma cell invasion, independently of the Arf6 signal. These results implicate simultaneous inhibition of the both signals as effective therapeutic protocol for anti-invasion therapy of glioma.
