Osteopontin is linked to p65 and MMP‐9 expression in pulmonary adenocarcinoma but not in malignant pleural mesothelioma

Abstract: Frequent OPN expression is typical of, but not specific for MM, whereas it appears to select adenocarcinoma cases with p65 and MMP-9 expression, suggesting a link with EGFR signalling pathways.

“…Furthermore we did not find a difference in serum OPN levels between squamous cell and adenocarcinoma. This is in contrast to the findings of another study showing that OPN levels of squamous cell carcinoma were significantly higher than those of adenocarcinoma (25).…”

“…Interestingly, elevated OPN expression correlate with MMP-9 levels (33) and MMP-9 mediates OPN-induced cell migration and chemoinvasion in B16F10 cells (34). In PC3 cells, OPN overexpression increases MMP-9 activity (17), presenting strong evidence that MMP-9 is a downstream effector of OPN in invasion.…”

“…Osteopontin (OPN) is a multifunctional protein that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous conditions, including malignant transformation, autoimmune diseases, and pulmonary fibrosis (12)(13)(14)(15). OPN elevations have also been described in smokers, where levels correlated with degree of airway obstruction (16).…”
