Project Title:Brief Pulses of High-Level Fluid Shear Stress Enhance Metastatic Potential and Rapidly Alter the Metabolism of Cancer Cells
Project Type:GC-and LC-MS
Project Summary:Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) face challenges to their survival including mechanical and oxidative stresses that are different from cancer cells in solid primary and metastatic tumors. The impact of adaptations to the fluid microenvironment of the circulation on the outcome of the metastatic cascade are not well understood. Here we find that cancer cells (PC-3, MDA-MB-231, Myc-CaP) exposed to brief pulses of high-level FSS exhibit enhanced invasiveness and anchorage-independent proliferation in vitro and enhanced metastatic colonization/tumor formation in vivo. Cancer cells exposed to FSS rapidly alter their metabolism in a manner that promotes survival by providing energy for cytoskeletal remodeling and contractility as well as reducing equivalents to counter oxidative stress associated with cell detachment. Thus, exposure to FSS may provide CTCs an unexpected survival benefit that promotes metastatic colonization.
