Targeting Cholesterol Transport in Circulating Melanoma Cells to Inhibit Metastasis
This study investigates whether targeting cholesterol transport in melanoma CTCs can retard metastasis development. Nanolipolee‐007, the liposomal form of leelamine, reduced melanoma metastasis in both a novel in vitro flow system mimicking the circulating system and in experimental as well as spontaneous animal metastasis models, irrespective of the BRAF mutational status of the CTCs. Leelamine led to cholesterol trapping in lysosomes, which subsequently shut down receptor mediated endocytosis, endosome trafficking and inhibited the major oncogenic signaling cascades important for survival such as the AKT pathway. Since...
