SDF-1/CXCR4 axis promotes directional migration of colorectal cancer cells through upregulation of integrin αvβ6
1 Oct 2013
Abstract excerpt
Colorectal cancer (CRC) displays a predilection for metastasis to liver. Although stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)/CXCR4 plays an important role in the liver metastasis, the molecular mechanism still remains obscure. We previously reported that integrin αvβ6 was implicated in the progression of CRC. However, no data are currently available on the cross talk between CXCR4 and αvβ6. In the present study, we...
