Abstract
Chemokines are small proteins that regulate leukocyte trafficking. They are important for development of tumors, because many chemokines are produced by tumor cells and attract leukocytes that contribute to malignancy. In addition, chemokines also act directly on tumor cells. In particular CXCL12 (SDF-1), and its receptor CXCR4, are required for metastasis of lymphoma and carcinoma cells. CXCL12 triggers invasion of lymphoma cells into tissues, in line with its role in leukocyte migration. Surprisingly, we found that CXCR4 is not required for invasion by carcinoma cells, but instead is essential at later stages, to promote outgrowth of micrometastases.
