Functional expression of olfactory receptors in human primary melanoma and melanoma metastasis.
We identified the olfactory receptor 51E2 in human melanoma and have measured both OR51E2 mRNA and protein expression in melanoma tissue sections. qPCR analysis revealed that the receptor is upregulated in melanoma cells compared to normal melanocytes, indicating that OR51E2 may play a role in early melanoma development and progression. Activation of endogenous OR51E2 in cultured cells derived from metastatic and vertical-growth phase (VGP) by its ligand β-ionone results in an increase in the intracellular Ca Topics: Calcium; Cell Line, Tumor; Cell Movement; Cell Proliferation; Cell Survival; Gene Expression Regulation, Neoplastic; Humans; Ligands; Melanocytes; Melanoma; Neoplasm Metastasis; Neoplasm Proteins; Norisoprenoids; Polymerase Chain Reaction; Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction; Receptors, Odorant; RNA Interference; RNA, Messenger; RNA, Small Interfering; Signal Transduction; Skin Neoplasms; Treatment Outcome | 2017 |
