Popis: | Cancer development and metastasis are associated to perturbation in metabolic functions of tumor cells and surrounding inflammatory and stromal cell responses. Eicosanoids and lipid mediators, in this regard, attract potential attention during cancer development. Eicosanoids, which include prostaglandin, prostacyclin, thromboxane, and leukotriene, are synthesized from arachidonic acid when cells are stimulated by stress, cytokines, or other growth factors. However, the underlying mechanism of eicosanoids in cancer development, specially their interactions with proto-oncogene factors in tumor microenvironment, remain unexplored. On the other hand, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a group of zinc-dependent endopeptidases which are involved in degradation of different extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. MMPs are associated with different physiological responses, including embryogenesis, vasculogenesis, and cellular remodeling, as well as different disease pathogenesis. Induced MMP responses are especially associated with cancer metastasis and secondary tumor development through proteolytic cleavage of several ECM and non-ECM proteins. Although both eicosanoids and MMPs are involved with cancer progression and metastasis, the interrelation between these two molecules are less explored. The present review discusses relevant studies that connect eicosanoids and MMPs and highlight the crosstalk between them offering novel therapeutic approach in cancer treatment. |
