RESUMO

Several cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) including selectins, integrins, cadherins and immunoglobulin-like CAMs are involved in leukocyte adhesion especially at sites of inflammation. In cancer cells, these CAMs have been associated with the growth and metastatic behavior in several malignant entities. In this study adhesion of LAN 1 and SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells to selectins, hyaluronan and endothelial cells were determined under flow conditions. Furthermore cells were injected subcutaneously into wildtype and selectin deficient scid mice and their growth and metastatic behavior were analyzed. Under shear stress SK-N-SH cells firmly adhered to E-selectin-Fc-fusion protein, hyaluronan and endothelial cells, while LAN 1 cells showed less or hardly any adhesive events by comparison. In the SK-N-SH xenograft model metastasis formation was slightly dependent on the expression of selectins, while LAN 1 cells developed metastases completely independent of selectin expression. The different adhesive and metastatic properties of LAN 1 and SK-N-SH cells are reflected by a different expression profile of several CAMs. The results indicate that endothelial selectins are not essential for metastasis formation of human LAN 1 and SK-N-SH cells. However, other CAMs namely CD44, N-cadherin, NCAM and integrins were upregulated or downregulated, respectively, in SK-N-SH and LAN 1 cells and are potential adhesion molecules involved in the metastatic cascade of these cells.
