英文摘要 | Background: apoptosis caused by inadequate or inappropriate cell-matrix interactions is defined as anoikis. although transformed cells are known to be anoikis-resistant, the underlying mechanisms have not been well understood. we investigated the mechanisms of anoikis resistance of tumor cells. results: we observed that cell aggregation in suspension promoted cell survival and proliferation. we demonstrated a correlation between tumor cell aggregation in suspension and cell growth in soft agar. analysis of tyrosine kinase-mediated cell survival and growth signaling pathways revealed increased levels of tyrosine-phosphorylation of pecam-1 and pyk2 in cell aggregates. we also showed that pecam-1 and pyk2 physically interact with each other, and that pecam-1 carrying a deletion of exons 11-16 could no longer bind to pyk2. furthermore, rna interference-mediated reduction of pyk2 and pecam-1 protein levels reduced cell aggregation and inhibited the growth of tumor cells in soft agar. conclusions: the data demonstrated that pyk2 and pecam-1 were critical mediators of both anchorage-independent growth and anoikis resistance in tumor cells. |
