Integrin α5 triggers the metastatic potential in renal cell carcinoma

Abstract: The therapy of advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is still a major challenge. To intervene therapeutically a deeper comprehension of the particular steps of metastasis is necessary. In this context membrane bound receptors like integrins play a decisive role. We analyzed the integrin α5 expression in 141 clear cell RCC patients by Western blot. Patients with RCC expressed a significant higher level of integrin α5 in tumor than in normal tissue. The integrin α5 expression correlated with tumor grade, the devel… Show more

“…For cell adhesion assay amine-binding, maleic anhydride activated clear 96-well-plates (Pierce #15110, Thermo Scientific) were used as described previously [ 20 ]. Extracellular matrix components used were fibronectin (10 μg/ml), vitronectin (5 μg/ml), laminin (50 μg/ml), collagen I (10 μg/ml), collagen IV (10 μg/ml) and as control BSA (10 μg/ml) (all Thermo Scientific).…”
