Hydrodynamic Shear Rate Regulates Melanoma-Leukocyte Aggregation, Melanoma Adhesion to the Endothelium, and Subsequent Extravasation

Abstract: Adhesion to and subsequent extravasation through the endothelial lining of blood vessels is critical for tumor cells to establish metastases. Recent studies have indicated that polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) may enhance melanoma adhesion to the endothelium (EC) and subsequent extravasation under dynamic flow conditions. However, little is known about hydrodynamics involved in the tumor microenvironment within the microcirculation. In this study, effects of hydrodynamic flow on regulating melanoma cell ad… Show more

“…␤ 2 -Integrin and ICAM-1 interaction facilitated tumor cell adhesion, and extravasation is a common mechanism for tumor cells. This paradigm has been found in melanoma (9,10,17,37,38), breast cancer (35,41,42), and colon adenocarcinoma (1,16). Thus, we also conducted a kinetics study between breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 and PMNs.…”

“…Tethering and rolling of leukocytes on the endothelium are initiated by selectins and stabilized by ␤ 2 -integrins, which is followed by PECAM-1-induced transmigration through the extracellular matrix (13,14). Tumor cells are found to interact with PMNs under shear flow in a cone-plate viscometer (12,(15)(16)(17). Evidently, the interactions between ␤ 2 -integrin (LFA-1 or Mac-1) expressed on PMNs and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) expressed on TCs or ECs dominate both PMN-EC and PMN-TC adhesions (9,10,12).…”

“…Passive cell intravasation, where cells are simply dislodged from the primary tumour, occurs as a result of increased hemodynamic flow 22,31,32 . By contrast, active migration occurs in cells which have separated from their neighbours and actively migrate.…”

“…1 Small-angle forward scatter (FSC) provides size information, whereas large-angle side scatter (SSC) offers information on internal properties (granularity and viability). Flow cytometry has been widely used for various applications such as clinical hematology diagnosis, 2,3 immunology, 4 and cancer biology. 5 However, the high cost, large size, mechanical complexity, large consumption of expensive agents, and requirements for professional operation of flow cytometry have limited its application.…”
