Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor Is Secreted by Rhabdomyosarcoma Cells, Modulates Tumor Metastasis by Binding to CXCR4 and CXCR7 Receptors and Inhibits Recruitment of Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts

Abstract: The overexpression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) has been observed in many tumors and is implicated in oncogenic transformation and tumor progression. MIF activates CXCR2 and CD74 receptors and, as recently reported, may also bind to the stromal-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)-binding receptor CXCR4. Here, we report that human rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) cell lines secrete MIF and that this chemokine (a) induces phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) p42/44 and AKT, (b) stimulates RMS… Show more

“…Similar results were reported in angiogenesis experiments in breast and lung cancer cells (Miao et al, 2007;Goldmann et al, 2008). Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), which is secreted by rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), is an autocrine/ paracrine factor that interacts with CXCR4 as well as with CXCR7 to enhance the adhesiveness of RMS cells (Tarnowski et al, 2010). EPCs may offer a possible biomarker for efficient of treatment and prognosis (Morita et al, 2011).…”

“…For example, syndecan has recently been shown to interact with both the CXCR4 receptor and the CXCL12 ligand (Schanz et al, 2011), and macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) can bind to both CXCL12 receptors, acting as a non-cognate ligand to prevent CXCL12 driven metastasis (Tarnowski et al, 2010). Indeed a protein of similar structure to 5T4, LRRC4, has been shown to influence CXCR4 signalling kinetics and function in glioblastoma (Wu et al, 2008).…”

“…The search site predicted a series of transcription factors that might be involved in the transcriptional regulation of let-7a (Table 1). The transcription factor Yin Yang 1 (YY1), ranked first in the prediction, is a member of the polycomb group and has been shown to be involved in CXCR4 signaling (25)(26)(27)(28)(29).…”
