Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between the function of EMMPRIN-MCT complex and the invasiveness and metastasis of tumor cells. Main findings were as follows : (1) 3-Bromopyruvate, a lactate analog, was transported into PC-3 cells actively through the EMMPRIN-MCT1 complex. (2) Improvements in the sensitivity of co-immunoprecipitation method revealed that the existence of novel endogenous interactors for EMMPRIN such as CA9, in addition to already identified MCT1, MCT4, MMP1 and PDLIM7.
