Abstract:
Although there is emerging evidence that BJ46a can function as potent inhibitor of the SVMPs proteolytic activities,its anticancer effect on invasion and metastasis has not yet been evaluated.Inhibition effect of BJ46a on experimental pulmonary metastasis in mice inoculated with B16 melanoma cells at the protein level was investigated. First,BJ46a was produced in baculovirus expression system. SDS-PAGE and Western blot analysis confirmed that BJ46a recombinant protein was produced by Sf9 cells infected with high-titer viral stock. Then,recombinant fusion protein was purified by ProBondTM at the point of maximal expression. B16 cells pre-treated with recombinant BJ46a injected into C57BL/6 mice via the tail lateral vein to form experimental pulmonary metastasis model. The numbers of metastatic lesions in C57BL/6 mice changed dramatically:BJ46a different concentrations of recombinant protein group were 1.1 ? 0.83,0.9 ? 0.7,significantly lower than the control group (6.3?3.00,P
