Increased plasma fibronectin concentrations in tumor bearing mice. 1983

A Siri, and B Carnemolla, and P Castellani, and E Balza, and S Raffanti, and L Zardi

Fibronectin concentration was studied in plasma of mice at different times after inoculation of 3 different experimental tumors, Colon 26 adenocarcinoma, mFS6 fibrosarcoma and B16 melanoma. A significant increase in fibronectin concentrations 10-30 days after inoculation of all tumors was found. Highest and earliest fibronectin increases were observed in BALB/c mice inoculated with Colon 26 adenocarcinoma cells. Control animals inoculated with previously irradiated cells (5000 rad) showed neither tumor growth nor significant variations in plasma fibronectin levels.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008545 Melanoma A malignant neoplasm derived from cells that are capable of forming melanin, which may occur in the skin of any part of the body, in the eye, or, rarely, in the mucous membranes of the genitalia, anus, oral cavity, or other sites. It occurs mostly in adults and may originate de novo or from a pigmented nevus or malignant lentigo. Melanomas frequently metastasize widely, and the regional lymph nodes, liver, lungs, and brain are likely to be involved. The incidence of malignant skin melanomas is rising rapidly in all parts of the world.

D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.
