3’-sialyllactose inhibits the migration and invasion of LPS-induced B16F10 mouse melanoma cells through inactivation of the NF-KB signaling pathway
摘要
Malignant melanoma has a high mortality rate and is aggressive. The development, metastasis, and angiogenesis of melanoma have all been connected to toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4). However, signal transduction mediated by TLR4 for accelerating melanoma progression is fully unclear. Because of this, the current research has been carried out to explore drug candidate possibility using 3’-Sialyllactose (3’-SL). We investigated the inhibitory effect of 3’-SL on migration and invasion, which are associated with treatment difficulty and mortality. The suppression of matrix metalloproteinases 9 (MMP-9) expression and activity by 3’-SL in B16F10 murine melanoma cells and concurrently downregulated the MAPK signaling pathway involved in this regulation. Therefore, our results demonstrate that 3’-SL may be a good candidate for the development of therapeutic agents to suppress malignancy associated with metastasis and invasion.
