Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis (PM) from colorectal cancer (CRC) carries a significant mortality rate for patients and treatment is challenging. The development of PM is a multistep process involving detachment, adhesion, invasion and colonization of the peritoneal cavity. Cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC (hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy) for PM from CRC has some benefit but overall survival is poor and recurrence rates are high. Treatments to prevent the development of peritoneal metastasis could have the potential to improve CRC survival and disease-free outcomes. The ability of cancer cells to invade the peritoneum and become established as metastatic tumors is influenced by a multifactorial process. Hyaluronic acid (HA) has been shown to coat the mesothelial cells of the peritoneum and has been demonstrated to be utilized in various malignancies as part of the metastatic process in peritoneal dissemination. CD44, RHAMM (CD168) and ICAM-1 have all been shown to be binding partners for HA. Targeting HA-mediated binding may prevent adhesion to distant sites within the peritoneum through suppression of interaction of these molecules. Here we review the current literature and discuss key molecules involved with PM dissemination, with the potential to target these mechanisms in the delivery of future treatments.

Molecular Characterization and Expression Analysis of Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1) Genes in Rainbow Trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss) in Response to Viral, Bacterial and Parasitic Challenge. Front Immunol 2021; 12:704224. [PMID: 34489953 PMCID: PMC8417878 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.704224] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
The intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), known as CD54, is a transmembrane cell surface glycoprotein that interacts with two integrins (i.e., LFA-1 and Mac-l) important for trans-endothelial migration of leukocytes. The level of ICAM-1 expression is upregulated in response to some inflammatory stimulations, including pathogen infection and proinflammatory cytokines. Yet, to date, our knowledge regarding the functional role of ICAM-1 in teleost fish remains largely unknown. In this study, we cloned and characterized the sequence of ICAM-1 in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) for the first time, which exhibited that the molecular features of ICAM-1 in fishes were relatively conserved compared with human ICAM-1. The transcriptional level of ICAM-1 was detected in 12 different tissues, and we found high expression of this gene in the head kidney, spleen, gills, skin, nose, and pharynx. Moreover, upon stimulation with infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV), Flavobacterium columnare G4 (F. columnare), and Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (Ich) in rainbow trout, the morphological changes were observed in the skin and gills, and enhanced expression of ICAM-1 mRNA was detected both in the systemic and mucosal tissues. These results indicate that ICAM-1 may be implicated in the mucosal immune responses to viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections in teleost fish, meaning that ICAM-1 emerges as a master regulator of mucosal immune responses against pathogen infections in teleost fish.

Clinical Relevance of Increased Endothelial and Mesothelial Expression of Proangiogenic Proteases and VEGFA in the Omentum of Patients with Metastatic Ovarian High-Grade Serous Carcinoma. Transl Oncol 2014; 7:267-276.e4. [PMID: 24913675 PMCID: PMC4101350 DOI: 10.1016/j.tranon.2014.02.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2013] [Revised: 01/31/2014] [Accepted: 02/03/2014] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) metastasis to the omentum requires implantation and angiogenesis. We propose that prometastatic changes in the omental endothelium (for angiogenesis) and mesothelium (for implantation) are critical. We investigated the expression of angiogenic proteases [cathepsin D (CD), cathepsin L (CL), and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) and MMP9] and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) in the mesothelium and endothelium of omentum from patients with EOC with omental metastases and control patients with benign ovarian tumors. Endothelial expression of CL, VEGFA, and MMP9 and mesothelial expression of VEGFA, MMP9, and CD were significantly increased in patients with metastasized EOC. High expression of MMP9 and VEGFA in endothelium and mesothelium and CD in mesothelium was positively associated with poor disease-specific survival (DSS). High MMP9 expression in either endothelium or mesothelium and presence of ascites prospectively showed the greatest risk of shorter DSS [hazard ratio (HR)= 6.16, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.76-21.6, P = .0045; HR = 11.42, 95% CI = 2.59-50.35, P = .0013; and HR = 6.35, 95% CI = 2.01-20.1, P = .002, respectively]. High endothelial MMP9 expression and ascites were independent predictors of reduced DSS and overall survival, together resulting in worst patient prognosis. Our data show that omental metastasis of EOC is associated with increased proangiogenic protein expression in the omental endothelium and mesothelium.
