Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Protein C inhibitor (PCI), a member of the serine protease inhibitors, physiologically inhibits an anticoagulant serine protease, activated protein C (APC) and thrombin- thrombomodulin (TM) complex. In this study, we studied the effects of host PCI on growth and metastasis of B16 melanoma (B16) cells by comparing between wild-type mice and mice transgenic for human PCI gene (hPCI-TG). B16 cells growth and metastatic nodules of B16 cells in the lungs were developed in hPCI-TG mice, and fibrin deposition in the lung in hPCI-TG mice was increased more than in wild-type mice. The invasive behavior of B16 cells observed in hPCI-TG mice was reduced by anti-human PCI IgG, APC, or soluble TM administration. Present studies suggest that PCI stimulates tumor cell growth and metastasis via its procoagulant properties, and anticoagulant proteins regulate PCI-dependent tumor cell growth and metastasis.
