Thrombin enhances the adhesion and migration of human colon adenocarcinoma cells via increased beta 3-integrin expression on the tumour cell surface and their inhibition by the snake venom peptide, rhodostomin.

The interactions between tumour cells and the microvasculature, including the adhesion of tumour cells to endothelium and extracellular matrix (ECM) as well as their migratory ability, are prerequisites for metastasis to occur. In this study we showed that thrombin is capable of enhancing in vitro t...
