Regulation of two genes involved in tumor invasion, the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-I and the tissue inhibitor of MMP (TIMP)-I, by activators of protein kinase C (PKC) or protein kinase A (PKA) was studied in MCF-7 mammary adenocarcinoma cells. The basal mRNA expression was undetectable for MMP-1
Tumor-stromal interactions have been suggested to be a critical factor in both tumor invasion and tumor metastasis. Here, we examined the role of tumor-stromal interactions using co-cultures of prostate cancer (PC) cells derived from primary and metastatic tumors with primary or immortalized stromal
