RESUMEN

Autocrine motility factor (AMF) a tumor-secreted 55 kDa cytokine induces tumor cell motility by a signal transduction pathway mediated by interaction with its receptor (AMFR) a cell surface glycoprotein of 78 kDa (gp78). Here, AMF secreted by the metastatic LMF4 human oral squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC) cells, induced dose- and time-dependent morphological changes and chemotaxis of the producing cells. Expression of AMFR mRNA was associated with the metastatic ability of SCC cell variants. The data presented show for the first time that SCC cells produce AMF and express AMFR and the expression is related to their invasiveness and metastatic potentials.
