Journal ArticleDOI

KAI1, a metastasis suppressor gene for prostate cancer on human chromosome 11p11.2.

TL;DR: A gene from human chromosome 11p11.2 was isolated and was shown to suppress metastasis when introduced into rat AT6.1 prostate cancer cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metastasis-Suppressor Genes: A Review and Perspective on an Emerging Field

TL;DR: The evolving view of the mechanisms that regulate metastasis and the importance of metastasis-suppressor genes in this process are described and the potential for the identification of novel therapeutic targets is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

An orthotopic model of human osteosarcoma growth and spontaneous pulmonary metastasis.

TL;DR: In vitro characterization demonstrated that the 143B line had the greatest cell migration and the least cell adhesion activities among the three lines and should be a valuable tool to investigate factors that promote or inhibit osteosarcoma growth and/or metastasis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metastasis Suppression: The Evolving Role of Metastasis Suppressor Genes for Regulating Cancer Cell Growth at the Secondary Site

TL;DR: Clinical assessment of metastasis suppressor gene product status in disseminated cancer cells may improve the accuracy of predicting the prognosis in patients with clinically localized disease and support growth at the secondary site as a clinical target for metastasis treatment and prevention.
Journal Article

Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Kinase 4/Stress-activated Protein/Erk Kinase 1 (MKK4/SEK1), a Prostate Cancer Metastasis Suppressor Gene Encoded by Human Chromosome 17

TL;DR: Chekmareva et al. as mentioned in this paper identified the mitogenactivated protein kinase kinase 4/stress-activated protein/Erk kinase 1 (MKK4/SEK1) gene as a candidate metastasis suppressor gene encoded by the approximately 70cM region.
