Detachment and Active Invasion by Renal Adenocarcinoma (Frog)

Progression in Invasion and Metastasis

Appearance of Primary Tumor (Neoplasia in situ) Vascularization (Angiogenesis)

• •

Invasion Into surrounding tissue Into vascular and lymphatic systems Release of Tumor Emboli (Shedding)

• •

Systemic Transport Hematogenous Lymphatic Arrest at Distant Site Secondary Invasion: Extravasation Secondary Angiogenesis Secondary Invasion Tertiary Spread

Release of Tumor Emboli and Tumor Cell Shedding

Invasion through thin anaplastic venous walls in tumor

• • • •

Facilitated by: Local trauma Diagnostic procedures Surgery Manipulation

• • • •

Emboli (small clumps of cells) Favored for survival by protection of inner cells Surrounded by fibrin clot May protect embolus while in circulation May facilitate survival of tumor cells at secondary tumor arrest site

Routes of Systemic Spread of Tumor Emboli and Tumor Cells

• • • •

Direct Extension Across Organ and Body Cavities Peritoneal Cavity Pleural Linings Peri-cardial Space Cerebrospinal Cavity

•

Lymphatic Spread: Lymphatic capillaries to regional lymph nodes

• • •

Hematogenous Spread: Entry via Lymphatic drainage into circulation Abnormal blood vessels in tumors Tumor cell deformability and motility

Arrest and Extravasation

Arrest of Tumor Emboli and Tumor Cells at

• •

Distant Sites

Predilection for Specific Organ Sites Depends only partly on anatomical and circulatory relationships Specific Organ Homing Based on Cell Adhesion Recognition

• • •

Cell-Cell and Cell-Connective Tissue Adherence Plasma membrane ligands on metastatic tumor cells Cell adhesion receptors on endothelial lining of capillaries in target organs Binding to laminin and fibronectin in extra-cellular connective tissue matrix

Extravasation Facilitated by Clot Formation Figure 14.9

(17 representative Genes)

Over- or Under-expression of 128 Metastasis-Associated Genes in DNA-Array Assay for Potential Metastatic Progression.

RNA’s prepared from 64 primary non-metastatic adenocarcinomas, and from 12 metastatic adenocarcinomas

Blue means decreased expression.

Half of the 128 genes in the 12 mets were down regulated.

Red means increased expression.

Half were up-regulated.
