Abstract
  • Background: In malignant melanoma (MM), overexpression of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin is linked to a more metastatic phenotype. Development of anti-alpha(v)beta(3) agents able to counteract melanoma progression would be helpful for disease treatment. A new selective ligand of alpha(v)beta(3), RGDechi-hCit, has anti-angiogenic properties against endothelial cells in animal angiogenesis models. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro effects of the RGDechi-hCit peptide on MM cell lines. Materials and Methods: Cytofluorimetric analysis characterized the cell surface expression of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin on seven MM cell lines: A375, WM266-4, SK-Mel-28, Sbcl2, LB24Dagi, PR-Mel and PNP-Mel. Cell proliferation, adhesion, and migration assays were carried out using the alpha(v)beta(3)-antagonist RGDechi-hCit. Results: Proliferation was not significantly inhibited by RGDechi-hCit, although striking morphological changes were detected in MM cell lines highly expressing alpha(v)beta(3). Conversely, assays on fibronectin-coated plates showed a significant RGDechi-hCit dose-dependent inhibitory effect on both adhesion and migration. Conclusion: The data demonstrate anti-adhesion and anti-migration, but not antiproliferative, activities of RGDechi-hCit against MM cells (literal)
