medicine | in a severe combined immunodeficient-human mouse model, PC-3 cells are the major source of uPA in the experimental bone tumor. Injection of uPA-silenced PC-3 cells in bone xenografts results in significant reduction of bone tumor burdens and protection of trabecular bones from destruction. The suppressed tumor growth is associated with the level of uPA expression but not with its activity. An increase in the expression of PAI-1, the endogenous uPA inhibitor, is found during in vitro tumor-stromal interactions. Up-regulation of PAI-1 in bone stromal cells and preosteoclasts/osteoblasts is due to soluble factor(s) released by PC cells, and the enhanced PAI-1 expression in turn stimulated PC cell migration | Homo sapiens |
