Abstrakt: Tendency to conversion from state of chronic inflammation to malignancy is a tumor characteristic trait, which encourages progression to its metastatic stage.. The inflammatory cells maintaining in the tumor inaugurate a communication with cancer cells and become tumor-fostering cells. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a program supporting malignant cells during switch phenotype into metastatic form, providing looseness of cell-cell adherence and strengthens migratory or invasive features. EMT-undergone tumor cells become more aggressive and resistant to apoptosis. Additionally, malignant cells can be stimulated to manufacture proinflammatory factors throughout EMT program. Chronic inflammation is responsible for EMT induction in malignancies. Developed tumors induce inflammatory response through excretion of cytokines, chemokines and growth factors, which recruit populations of infiltrating immune cells straight to the tumor microenvironment. The inflammatory reaction potentially exerts tumor control, but instead it can be intercepted by the tumor to stimulate its own development in direction to metastatic form. Our study confirmed that SDF-1 chemokine and its receptors, CXCR4 and CXCR7 may participate in initiation of metastases formation and EMT process.
