Selective Inhibition of ADAM28 Suppresses Lung Carcinoma Cell Growth and Metastasis

Abstract excerpt

Abstract ADAM28 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 28) is overexpressed by carcinoma cells in non–small cell lung carcinomas (NSCLC) and plays an important role in cancer cell proliferation and metastasis by reactivation of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and escaping from von Willebrand factor (VWF)–induced apoptosis through digestion of IGF-binding protein-3 and VWF, respectively. To aim for new target...
