This mechanism has been termed extravascular migratory metastasis (EVMM). During EVMM, angiotropic tumor cells migrate in a 'pericytic-like' manner (pericytic mimicry) along the external surfaces of vascular channels, without intravasation. Through this pathway, melanoma cells may spread to nearby or more distant sites. Angiotropism is a prognostic factor predicting risk for metastasis in human melanoma, and a marker of EVMM in several experimental models. Importantly, analogies of EVMM and pericytic mimicry include neural crest cell migration, vasculogenesis and angiogenesis, and recent studies have suggested that the interaction between melanoma cells and the abluminal vascular surface induce differential expression of genes reminiscent of cancer migration and embryonic/stem cell state transitions. A recent work revealed that repetitive UV exposure of primary cutaneous melanomas in a genetically engineered mouse model promotes metastatic progression via angiotropism and migration along the abluminal vascular surface. Finally, recent data using imaging of melanoma cells in a murine model have shown the progression of tumor cells along the vascular surfaces. Taken together, these data provide support for the biological phenomenon of angiotropism and EVMM, which may open promising new strategies for reducing or preventing melanoma metastasis. </p>","PeriodicalId":9425,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Microenvironment","volume":"7 3","pages":"139-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s12307-014-0156-4","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"32737992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this regard, microenvironmental hypoxia plays a determinant role in the emergence of CTC (circulating tumor cells) and CSC (cancer stem cells). CTCs are believed to be indicators of residual disease and thus pose an increased risk of metastasis. In spite of being rare and exposed to immune attack, these cells are capable to escape the immune system of the host. Although CTC play a pivotal role in the metastatic cascade and their prognostic impact has been repeatedly demonstrated, little is known about their escape mechanisms to immune system of the host. Therefore a better knowledge of the immunogenicity of these cells and their cross talk with immune killer cells as well as with tumor microenvironment may represent an exciting new immunotherapy opportunity. In this chapter, we will discuss how hypoxia is involved in the regulation of tumor progression and induction of EMT and cancer stem cell like features. We will also illustrate the relationship between hypoxia and CTC and review how CTC interact with the cells of immune system (both innate and adaptive) in terms of their survival and EMT phenotype. We will attempt to outline how hypoxic stress may confer resistance to CTC by giving them EMT and CSC like phenotype. Finally we will discuss whether the inhibition of hypoxic signaling pathways in different compartments of the solid tumor microenvironment will have an impact on CTC number, resistant phenotype and CTC lysis by immune effectors. </p>","PeriodicalId":9425,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Microenvironment","volume":"7 3","pages":"153-60"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s12307-014-0157-3","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"32765548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is no system to evaluate the factors, detected in individual breast cancer cases, that regulate ER activity and tumor progression. In this study, we analyzed the effects of individual breast cancer extracts by our original system using an estrogen-signal reporter cell line, MCF-7-E10, which we previously established. MCF-7-E10 cell line is stably transfected by an estrogen response element (ERE)-green fluorescent protein (GFP) gene; it expresses GFP when estrogen receptors (ERs) are activated by estrogen or growth factor signal-mediated ER phosphorylation. Using this cell line, we analyzed the comprehensive effects of factors derived from breast cancer tissues on ER activity and growth of MCF-7-E10 cells for each case. We also analyzed relationships between these activities and clinicopathologic characteristics of patients who provided cancer specimens. The breast cancer extracts, which reflect the combined activities of growth factors present in individual cases, stimulated MCF-7-E10 cell growth in an estrogen-independent manner, and specifically stimulated growth of other breast cancer cell lines, regardless of ER expression. High growth-promoting activities were seen in tumor regions of specimens with tumors > 10 mm in size, HER2 intrinsic subtype, and scirrhous and solid-tubular carcinoma histological subtypes. Anti-human hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) antibody and an inhibitor for insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) receptor inhibited MCF-7-E10 cell growth by the breast cancer extracts, indicating that signal pathways via HGF or IGF-1 receptor significantly affect breast cancer. These data suggest that growth factors other than estrogen in the tumor extract significantly affect breast cancer aggressiveness in an estrogen-independent manner, and could be useful therapeutic targets. </p>","PeriodicalId":9425,"journal":{"name":"Cancer Microenvironment","volume":"7 1-2","pages":"23-31"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s12307-013-0139-x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"31843124","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The MPs from mesenchymal-like cells contained increased angiogenic molecules including PDGF, IL8 and angiogenin.

Endothelial activation functionalized an MP dependent pro-tumoral vascular niche promoting cancer cells proliferation, invasiveness, stem cell phenotype and chemoresistance.
