Cell Communication and Signaling 2012, 10:3Monocytes conditioned media stimulate fibronectin expression and spreading of inflammatory breast cancer cells in three-dimensional culture: A mechanism mediated by IL-8 signaling pathway
Cytokines secreted by human monocytes may promote chemotactic migration and spreading of inflammatory breast cancer cell lines, and over-expression of fibronectin may be mediated by interleukin-8 via the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
